Earn your BA at the Center for Worker Education

The Center for Worker Education (CWE) is part of City College (CCNY) of the City University of New York (CUNY), but it's located in downtown Manhattan. The program offers Bachelor's degrees tailored to the needs of working adults: 4-credit evening and Saturday courses which meet just once a week, individual advisement, small classes, and a wide range of concentrations all leading to a CCNY bachelor's degree.
