CUNY Start is an intensive program for incoming college students who have earned either a high school or high school equivalency diploma and need to increase their academic proficiency in reading, writing, and/or mathematics prior to enrollment in college credit classes. The CUNY Office of Academic Affairs, all of the University's seven community colleges, Medgar Evers College, and the College of Staten Island work collaboratively to provide students with an innovative approach to developmental education. CUNY Start is recognized for its carefully designed curriculum and pedagogy, advisement, ongoing professional development, and mentor-based training model.

CUNY Start, recognized as an important University initiative, has consistently proven to be highly effective at reducing and/or eliminating student's remedial needs within one semester. Since 2011, CUNY Start has undergone a large-scale expansion, serving nearly 3.900 students across the system in FY15. In addition, the program is currently participating in a study led by the nationally recognized research group MDRC in partnership with the Community College Research Center at Columbia University (CCRC) to compare CUNY Start student outcomes to other remedial pathways at the college.
