Uploading a Student Document through CUNYfirst
There may be times when you are required to
upload a scanned document, completed form, file
or record to securely submit the following types of
information to your college or the University:
Admissions documents
Financial aid documents
Health services documents
Registrar/student record documents
File names for your uploaded documents should be
descriptive and include your name so they are
easier for administrative staff to work with—
especially if multiple files are uploaded
concurrently. Avoid file names like Scan-129-
04042020.pdf or 20200404_133911.jpg.
To upload and submit documents using CUNYfirst:
1. Log into CUNYfirst.
2. Select Campus Solutions > Self Service >
Document Upload.
The Document Upload page is displayed with
your name and 8-Digit CUNYfirst ID.
3. Using the Document Class drop-down menu,
select one of the following document classes
corresponding to the document to be uploaded:
Admissions
Financial Aid
Health Services
Registrar
A Document Type drop-down menu is added to
the Document Upload page.
Uploading documents through CUNYfirst
works best on a computer and not a
mobile device.
If you must upload documents using a
mobile device, make sure that the
device’s web browser app is set to
desktop mode and the pop-up blocker is
disabled.
