There is no one statement that captures the different variables that are considered in assigning NYU's on campus housing population. There are many factors that contribute to an individual student's assignment. These factors include but are not limited to gender, year in school, and participation in an Academic Initiative program. Requests are primarily made through the application process and are accommodated based upon the feasibility and availability of the request. Due to the high demand for university housing not all requests can be accommodated.

Students may apply for a different assignment during the room change periods.. For more information please see the Room Change section of our website.
