Monitored Academic Status (MAS)

Monitored Academic Status (MAS) is an informal, internal CUNY School of Medicine designation that is not documented in a student’s MSPE letter. A student who is placed on MAS is still considered to be in good academic standing. MD students will be placed on Monitored Academic Status for receiving a Conditional (as distinguished from a failing) grade in any course or clerkship. Students placed on MAS will receive a letter from the SAPC notifying them that they are required to meet with the designated Medical Student Advisor in the Office of Student Affairs to develop a plan to ensure their future success and access appropriate support resources. Upon passing any required reassessment and the next course in the curriculum, students will no longer be on MAS.
