Admitted Students

In order to confirm your intention to enroll, you must accept your offer of admission by submitting a $500 non-refundable enrollment deposit. You can accept or decline your offer online using a non-refundable e-check or by mail / in person (only if you are unable to accept your offer online). To accept online, please see your acceptance email with specific instructions on how to access the link through NYUHome. If you are unable to accept your offer online, please mail a completed Confirmation Form (to be sent separately) and a check or money order payable to "New York University" to NYU Office of Global Programs, 110 East 14th Street, Lower Level, New York, NY 10003. Please DO NOT SEND CASH. The check or money order must be in U.S. funds only and include your University ID number and Study Away site in the memo section. Deposits are encouraged within two weeks of acceptance.  **It is this confirmation form and deposit that guarantees your place in the program. Please note that programs space is limited. If the program reaches capacity before we receive your deposit, you will be placed on a waitlist.**

Leading up to your semester abroad, your site representative will share new posts about everything from flights to registration to packing tips (and everything in between). Make sure to read all the posts to stay on top of your “to do’s” and use this blog as a your main point of reference throughout your pre-departure steps.  You will be receive weekly reminders with links to recently posted items, but we highly suggest you  - and your parents – subscribe to the blog as well to make sure you don’t miss a thing. 

Please see link below for this term's What's Next Blog.

If you don’t have a passport that is valid through the required period after the end of the program, apply for one today! Check out travel.state.gov for more information. We suggest that you request “expedited processing” (two week turnaround time) to allow plenty of time to apply for your student visa.If you do not have two weeks to spare, you can go to the US Passport Agency to request a passport the same day. For a Passport Agency near you and for more information, please refer to their website. Prior to going to the Passport Agency, please contact someone from our office so that we can provide you with the appropriate letter. 

For details regarding passport requirements, please see the related What's Next page.

Financial aid, grants, and scholarships are available to both NYU and Non-NYU upperclassmen who study abroad at the NYU Global Academic Centers. 

NYU students with a current FAFSA on file with the Office of Financial Aid may apply for additional financial aid for their semester abroad. Non-NYU students who receive financial aid are encouraged to work with a financial aid adviser from their home school to inquire about transferring financial aid funding to NYU via a consortium agreement. 

For more details about financial aid, scholarships, and grants.

Visiting Students: If you’re nearby and able to attend any on-campus events, we’d love to have you. However, we’re also committed to making sure that those of you who don’t live near New York City are kept in the loop. Here are a few ways we ensure that you’re just as well-informed as NYU students:

1. We will send you regular e-mails with comprehensive “what to do” lists and details and post information about the pre-departure process to the site specific blogs.
2. Our staff is always available to provide prompt assistance to any questions you have by e-mail or phone.
3. We can put you in contact with students who attend our programs so that you can get inside information on what to expect. To speak with a former student from your program, please e-mail global.ambassadors@nyu.edu.
