Apply Leadership Courses to Degree
Undergraduate Students
Undergraduate students may apply the credits from the NYPD Leadership Program to a vast majority of bachelor degree programs at John Jay College. After students are admitted to the Program, they will be invited to meet with an academic advisor to discuss their degree plans.
