John Jay College Of Criminal Justice | The City University of New York

Students participating on study abroad programs receive academic credit in one of three ways:

1) John Jay credit - If you participate on a John Jay College faculty-led program you will receive John Jay credit just as you would if you took the course on campus.

2) E-PERMIT credit -If you participate on a study abroad program offered through another CUNY institution you will apply for E-PERMIT credit.  Courses granted through E-PERMIT are calculated into your GPA. See STEP 6 in the “Step by Step Process” for information on applying for permits.

3) PERMIT credit - If you participate on a study abroad program offered through a third-party provider you will apply for PERMIT credit.  Courses granted through PERMIT are transfer credit and are NOT calculated into your GPA. See STEP 6 in the “Step by Step Process” for information on applying for permits.
