How To Find Your CUNY Employee ID (aka EmplID)
EmplID is the unique CUNY identification number assigned to every student, faculty and staff member in CUNYfirst.
Please select your relationship to CUNY from the options below.
You can find your EmplID in the 'Profile' module of 'Student Center' in CUNYfirst.
Go to https://home.cunyfirst.cuny.edu/ and log in with your CUNYfirst credentials (username is in the format firstname.lastnameXX@login.cuny.edu where XX are the last 2 digits of your EmplID).
Once logged in, click on 'Student Center'.
Your EmplID is displayed on the bottom of the 'Profile' tile.
You can find your EmplID in the 'ESS Travel and Expenses' module of 'Employee Self-Service' in CUNYfirst.
Go to https://home.cunyfirst.cuny.edu/ and log in with your CUNYfirst credentials (username is in the format firstname.lastnameXX@login.cuny.edu where XX are the last 2 digits of your EmplID).
Once logged in, click on 'Employee Self Service'.
Then click on 'ESS Travel and Expenses'.
Your EmplID is displayed under 'Expense Report'.
RF and non-tax levy employees do not have CUNYfirst EmplIDs, unless they have a separate appointment with CUNY or a CUNY entity that provides them one under a different job title. In that case, please refer to the "Faculty and Staff' section in this page.
Should you have no other appointments, then you will need to contact IT Services in order to get your password reset.
All LP2 students should have been sent their Student EmplID. If you did not receive it, please contact the Office of Academic Initiatives and Strategic Innovation.
If you’re an LP2 Member but also a current CUNY student or faculty/staff, please refer to the relevant section of this page.
If you are an LP2 Member but have no affiliation to CUNY at all and are not sure of your EmplID, please contact the Office of Academic Initiatives and Strategic Innovation (engagement@gc.cuny.edu). Please note that if you are using an EmplID that starts with 'S', that ID is NOT connected to CUNYfirst. CUNYfirst is only for students who are admitted as undergraduate or graduate students, and Faculty/Staff.
