Getting Started at NYU

Welcome to New York University. Once you are accepted to New York University, you will start to receive a variety of mailings in the late spring and early summer. These mailings will include information about finding a place to live, school orientations, financial aid, tuition payment, registration, Welcome Week, school orientations and registration, health resources, and much more. So be sure to activate your NYU ID, because this is the best way to stay connected and insure that you will be receiving important details and deadlines in a timely way. We hope you will use this site as a great starting point for a variety of resources that will help you succeed in your first year at NYU.

Graduate Student Life

The mission of the Student Resource Center's Office of Graduate Student Life is to help graduate students access information, resources, and services and make the most of the NYU experience. We function as a liaison between graduate students, their schools, and the university at large. This partnership is accomplished through programming, information dissemination, and services for the graduate student community.
