Visitor Information

With 14 schools and over 40,000 students, NYU's campus buildings are spread throughout New York City, but the center of NYU is its Washington Square campus in the heart of Greenwich Village. One of the city's most creative and energetic communities, the Village is a historic neighborhood that has attracted generations of writers, musicians, artists, and intellectuals.

Beyond the Village, New York City becomes an extension of the University's campus.  With institutes and centers on the Upper East Side and academic buildings and dorms down on Wall Street, getting from place to place at NYU requires a little assistance.

Luckily, there are a lot of options available to get around New York City. NYU Transportation services run between the Washington Square campus and NYU residence halls.  The MTA runs the subway, train and bus systems that will get you where you need to go.

If all else fails, head over to Broadway to catch a cab downtown (yellow cabs only, please) or over to Sixth Avenue to catch one going uptown.
