International and Undocumented Student and Scholar Issues
NYU is bound together as a community, each member valued, each member belonging here, each member deserving of the support that NYU can give. Documented or undocumented, these are our peers, colleagues, and friends. It is vital that the higher education community is able to move across borders in peaceful pursuit of one's scholarship.
NYU closely follows immigration policies that effect our community and will continue to update the news and information here.
