NYU is located in the heart of New York City's famed Greenwich Village. Our campus surrounds Washington Square Park, and is woven into a neighborhood of charming row houses and cobblestone streets that are dotted with outdoor cafes and unique shops.
Our campus visit program lasts approximately two hours, and features an admissions officer-led information session, followed by a one hour, student-led tour. We welcome students, families, and guests to join us. Please reserve your session in advance through our online reservation system.
The Welcome Center will close at 4:00 PM on Friday, May 24, 2013 and remain closed through Monday, May 27, 2013 in observance of the Memorial Holiday Weekend. We will resume normal business hours on Tuesday, May 28, 2013 at 9:00 AM.
The Welcome Center is open most weekdays from 9am-5pm and Saturdays from 10am-4pm, offering tours and information sessions throughout the day. The Welcome Center is also open to walk-in guests on Sundays from April through October, 10am-4pm. Many information sessions and tours begin here; please see the check-in instructions in your confirmation e-mail.
