Applicants to NYU academic year study away programs are generally registered as full-time students at an accredited US college or university. 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. Students who participate in study away programs have completed their freshman year of study (two full semesters). Students admitted to the program have earned a GPA of at least 3.0 or higher. Students who have completed at least one year of college but are not presently enrolled in a college or university or have already graduated are also eligible to apply; however, priority is given to students currently matriculated.
Students with disabilities who are requesting accommodations at NYU Global academic centers must contact the Moses Center for Students with Disabilities to discuss reasonable accommodations. Students are encouraged to contact the Moses Center for Students with Disabilities prior to choosing a location and should register with the Moses Center as soon as they receive notification of their admission to enroll. Information for students with disabilities who are requesting accommodations at an NYU academic center can be found on the Moses Center website.
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:
NYU students need to fill out the online application, which includes a personal statement. Students applying to NYU Paris may also be required to submit the Language Background Form available for download within the online application.
Admissions Requirements
An integrated review of a student’s academic background and University records is required to confirm admission to any NYU Global Academic Center. Initial acceptance to study away through NYU is granted conditionally until all of the following stipulations are met:
Academic Success & Review of University Records
Please be aware that admission to any of the NYU Global Academic Programs is contingent upon the applicant’s continued academic success and a review of his or her University records. Should a student’s admission be revoked as a result of this review, New York University is not responsible for refunding any expenses incurred in preparation for the intended semester of study.
Discipline Statement
Given their unique nature, membership in a global campus community requires mutual respect, consideration, and concern for the well-being of others as well as a significant degree of personal integrity and maturity. Students whose prior behavior has been determined through the University student conduct process to have been disruptive to the University community and/or antithetical to these qualities may be precluded from participation in the study away experience. Accordingly, please be advised that information concerning student conduct actions is made available to the New York University Global Academic Centers and may be taken into consideration in the process of reviewing a student’s application to participate. Students who have been placed on University disciplinary probation or on deferred suspension from University housing are ineligible to participate in study away during the period of their probation and/or deferred status. Students who have been suspended, withdrawn, or dismissed from the University and those who have been dismissed or suspended from University housing are permanently ineligible to enroll at the Global Academic Centers.
University Leave Policy
Students who have been on leave from the University must return to the New York City campus and successfully complete one academic semester (fall or spring) of full-time course work before enrolling at a Global Academic Center.
The NYU Study Away Standard is available for review.
Non-NYU students should submit the online application and also submit official transcripts of all college-level work and other supplemental materials. A complete application consists of the following:
