For Students

A cornerstone of the SEEK Program is the annual Summer Academy Program for incoming freshmen.

The goals of the Summer Academy are:

  • To prepare students to become “Skills Certified”, which means successful completion of Reading, Writing and Mathematics Courses.
  • To give students a head start in their college level courses.
  • To orient student to SEEK staff, program expectations and services.
  • To educate students about  John Jay College Life, College resources and opportunities.
