For Students

Welcome to the First-Year Writing Program! All students, unless they have placed out of the first-year writing requirement, will take one section of ENG 1000C "English Compostion." (If you're in the Honors Program, this class is designated as HON 1030C.)

The First-Year Writing Program is Directed by Dr. Carmen Kynard; you'll find her office in the Institute for Writing Sudies, on the first floor of St. Augustine Library, Queens campus. The faculty who teach your ENG 1000C course also have their offices in this location; faculty teaching on the Staten Island campus have their offices near the Writing Center in Mahoney.

Please check back in the future when we expect to be posting student handbooks written by our first-year writing students. We will also be posting announcements about open mics, readings, and other FYW events.
