I’ve lost
my diploma how can I get another one?
Send a notarized
letter to the Office
of the Registrar, stating that you have lost or misplaced your
diploma.
Include your name as it was when you graduated and a check for $25.00
payable
to The College of New Rochelle.
How can
I get a copy of my transcript?
A request for an
official transcript
or a student copy should be made in writing by the alumna/us.
Requests should
be sent to the Registrar;
include your social security number, complete address instructions and
a check or money order for $4.00 payable to The College of New
Rochelle.
Your signature must appear on the letter. You may contact the
Registrar's
Office at (914) 654-5216.
Is the
pool or gym available for alumnae/i use?
The Sports
Building that you remember
on the main campus was demolished on the expert advice of engineers and
architects. Although it was state of the art in the 30s, it no longer
met
regulation requirements for competition and was in need of extensive
refurbishing.
Our new challenge is to raise the funds for a building that will meet
the
demands of the 21st century. Meanwhile our Blue Angel teams use
off
campus facilities made available at other institutions and a regular
physical
education program is directed from the newly constructed Fitness Center
located in Ursula Hall.
These facilities
are available to
students, faculty, and staff only. We look forward to the grand
opening
of a Health and Wellness Center in the near future that will also serve
alumnae/i and the community.
Can I use Gill Library even if I’m not taking courses at the
College?
The
Gill Library catalog may be accessed on the Internet at
http://www.cnr.edu/home/library/
and the Library's online databases may be accessed in
Gill Library. Gill Library borrowing privileges are provided
for one year at a time to CNR alumnae/i at the cost of

I’ve heard
that alumnae can audit courses. Is there a fee? How do I sign up?
Non-matriculated
students may audit
a course for one half the usual tuition charge. The permission of
the instructor is the only requirement. Auditors are encouraged
to
sign up during registration week or the first week of classes.
Although
I started college with the Class of 19xx, I did not graduate until xx
years
later (also may not have received a degree at all, or graduated from
another
school). Can my record be changed so that I will get Reunion news
and other mailings from my original class?
Of course.
Call or e-mail the
Office of Alumnae/i Relations to express your preference for the class
with whom you would like to be affiliated.
My mail
is
addressed to me as “Mrs. John Doe,” but now I use my own name.
Why
doesn’t the College adjust its records to reflect this change?
Names, titles,
addresses, telephone
numbers etc. are changed only at the request of the alumna/us
concerned.
Let us know exactly how you prefer to be addressed.
May I attend
Reunion Weekend even if it is not my reunion year? What if I did
