NYU Welcome Day / Residence Hall Move-In

This day complements Residence Hall Move-In with a Parent Welcome and Information Fair. New undergraduate students and their family members are invited to stop by the Kimmel Center for refreshments, information, and to meet representatives from various NYU offices and organizations. It's a great place to meet other parents and students, take a break, get a bite, pick up some free stuff, and if you haven't already, pick-up your student ID. Shopping shuttles will also be available to local stores.
