TAS Summer Advance

TAS students are highly encouraged to use the summer as an opportunity to advance their academic career.

TASs should either enroll in high school courses that further their progress towards college-readiness or college courses that advance their progress to success in college. The TAS Summer Advance is a series of courses and research opportunities that are offered at the participating CUNY colleges and in partnership with College Now. All students who have been a TAS are encouraged to participate in the TAS Summer Advance. TAS Summer Advance is part of the TAS Pipeline.
