Applying

Eligibility & Requirements

All students interested in applying to study at an NYU Global Academic Center must complete the online application. All applicants are encouraged to include two different choices of locations for study and every attempt will be made to match students with one of their top two locations.

Eligible student types include: 

• Students wishing to apply for admission to begin a NYU undergraduate degree program either as a first year or transfer student should not use this application and should instead visit the Office of Undergraduate Admissions Web-site at http://www.nyu.edu/admissions/undergraduate-admissions.html
  

Notification & Acceptance 

Applicants will be notified via e-mail on the notification date. Accepted students must confirm their intention to enroll by submitting a nonrefundable $500 reservation fee and are urged to do so immediately upon receiving admission notification; enrollment is not guaranteed until the reservation is received. Reservations will be accepted as long as space remains available. Please note that space in the program is limited. If the program reaches capacity before we receive your reservation, you will be placed on a waitlist.

A Note for All Students: Upon acceptance, you will be required to submit a confidential medical form. Visiting students must also submit a confidential immunization report signed by your physician.

Mail any required application materials to:

NYU Office of Global Programs
110 East 14th Street, Lower Level
New York, NY 10003

Online Application

Note: If you encounter trouble when trying to submit your application, first save the application as it is and then clear your cache (read: go into your browser tools menu and select the clear history/clear browsing data/clear cache option). Then, close all of your browser windows, reopen the browser, and log back into your application. In almost all cases, this will allow you to submit your application. If you try this and continue to have trouble, please email us at  global.admissions@nyu.edu and we will help you.

Deadlines

You should submit your electronic application on or before the admissions deadlines posted below. You are welcome to apply for admission as early as you would like and we will keep your application on file until we begin reviewing applications for the term you have indicated.

Special note for students considering NYU Prague for fall 2013: (dated January 10, 2013) If you are a US citizen traveling on a US passport, you are highly encouraged to apply by the February 15th deadline. Visa requirements set by the Czech government take up to 4 months to secure and process - applying for admission in February generally allows enough time to follow the required steps to obtain the visa.

If you are considering NYU Prague as an E.U. passport holder, you can disregard this message.

All other country passport holders: In order to receive notification of admission within sufficient time to apply for and receive your student visa, all non-U.S. citizens (including Green card holders)/non-E.U. citizens MUST apply by the first priority deadline to enroll at NYU Prague.

*Students who submit an application during these review phases will be admitted only as space remains available.
