During the Winter Session, Lehman College offers almost 200 undergraduate and graduate online courses. The complete schedule of classes should be viewable online by November 6th. If you are a current Lehman or CUNY student, you can use Schedule Builder to check for course availability. If you are not currently enrolled at Lehman or another CUNY college, please search for real-time course availability in the online course search engine before applying. Select the "Schedule of Classes" option on the menu on this page for instructions on how to search for Winter Session courses using CUNY's Global Search.

Registration information for current Lehman College students

Lehman students who have registered for courses this year (and who have not graduated or applied to graduate) will automatically receive a Winter Session enrollment appointment and can self-register via Schedule Builder. Please note that other holds may impact registration. Lehman students who have not taken classes this year must be readmitted to the College to register for Winter Session classes. Click here for more information on readmission.

Registration information for students from other CUNY colleges

Follow the CUNY ePermit procedure to register for a class.  Once you have obtained your CUNY ePermit, you will be able to self-register via Schedule Builder. Please note that it can take 2-3 business days (or longer) for your home college to process the ePermit out and then an additional 2-3 business days for Lehman to process the ePermit in once your home college has completed their processing. You should initiate the ePermit process as early in the registration period as possible.

Registration information for students at other colleges and universities

If you are not a current Lehman College or CUNY student, but you are attending another college or university, you will need to submit the visiting student application and the other required materials listed on the first page of the application packet. All application materials should be uploaded to our secure digital dropbox. You will be billed for the non-refundable application fee ($65 for new undergraduate visiting students, $75 for new graduate visiting students, and $20 for returning visiting students) once your application has been processed.

Registration information for students at other colleges and universities

If you are not currently attending any college or university and are interested in taking a course for professional development or as a prerequisite for entry into a program elsewhere, you will need to apply as a non-degree student via the Admissions Office.
