RE:        Enrollment Management & Student Affairs Student Resources  


Welcome to the Fall ’25 Semester! 

 As Interim Vice President for Enrollment Management & Students Affairs, I want to remind everyone about community resources available to students:

  • Counseling Services are available for students in the Wellness Center (L.68NB). All of the services are free of charge and confidential.  Please email chead@jjay.cuny.edu or walk-in to make an appointment during normal business hours; Monday through Friday, 9AM to 5PM. In an emergency, before or after these hours, please contact public safety, or call 911.

    Counseling staff are trained professionals and diverse in ethnicity, race, sexual orientation, religion/spirituality, age, and gender. They also have bilingual staff.  Email gwbryant@jjay.cuny.eduor chead@jjay.cuny.edu or call 212-237-8111 for more information.
  • Student Emergency Assistance Programs are also available in the Wellness Center.  Students experiencing food insecurity, loss of housing or dislocation from home, loss of income, issues and costs related to immigration, or assistance with paying for childcare may be eligible for a variety of services. Many of these services are available to students for free and regardless of immigration status.  The Wellness Center is located in L.68.00 and can be reached at emergencyfunding@jjay.cuny.edu. See attached flyer for more information.
     
  • Involvement can be a critical factor in student success.  It provides valuable leadership skills and networking opportunities.  Through the Center for Student Involvement & Leadership, you can engage in a variety of on-campus opportunities to get connected to the college. We have over 40 clubs and organizations, and we urge you to get involved.  To learn more about the various clubs and organizations and involvement opportunities, feel free to visit the Center for Student Involvement and Leadership (CSIL) online at https://www.jjay.cuny.edu/center-student-involvement-leadership.
     
  • Enrollment Management / Student Affairs Department Contacts: I highly recommend you review the contact lists below. In the event you do not get a response to your questions/concerns, please email studentaffairs@jjay.cuny.edu. 

 

Thank you for your time; if you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to the Wellness Center (212-237-8111) or the Dean of Students office (212-237-8211).

Sincerely,

Daniel Matos
