Students with demonstrated financial need are encouraged to submit our Study Away Confirmation Fee Deferment Form to be formally reviewed for deferment eligibility. Please log into the form using your NYU email address.
Though we would like to accommodate each and every student that has expressed a financial need, a formal threshold is imperative. This threshold is as follows: if a student's financial aid package consists of any form of loans, grants, or scholarships - we will waive the enrollment fee in the order it is received via this formal deferment form. Students who submit this form and qualify for fee deferment will be automatically confirmed to enroll.
Please mail or hand-deliver a completed confirmation form and a check or money order payable to "New York University" with your name and University ID written in the memo section, to NYU Office of Global Programs, 383 Lafayette St, 4th Floor, New York NY 10003.
Note: Please do not send cash. The check or money order must be in US funds only and include your University ID number. Once we receive and process your reservation fee, the "Admission Offer" button will no longer be available to you through Albert.
Students requiring a $500 confirmation fee but without a US bank account will not be able to submit payment via the Accept / Decline option.
Instead, please submit the fee via flywire and email a copy of the receipt of payment and the completed confirmation form to global.admissions@nyu.edu.

In order to be reviewed for an alternate program or to cancel a submitted application, students must submit one of the following request forms.
Any student who has already applied, been admitted, or confirmed to study away for an upcoming term, but who has decided to change their first choice program location, should submit a program change request form. Please understand that change requests will be reviewed on a space available basis and that your application will be reassessed in light of the information you include here.
Students no longer interested in study away must submit an Application Cancellation Form.
Students who still want to be considered for study away but for a different program for which they initially applied or were admitted should submit the Program Change Request Form. Applications or admission cannot be deferred.
Please review the frequently asked questions below about the confirmation process, program changes and cancellations. If you are unable to find your answer here, contact global.admissions@nyu.edu.
Before midnight (EST)! We aim to send out notification during regular business hours, but if you have not heard by 5 pm don't worry. You will soon!
The requirements of your confirmation will be stated in your acceptance letter. Students participating on select programs, confirming their spring enrollment as part of a full year away, and degree students from NYU Shanghai and NYU Abu Dhabi are not required to submit payment.
Unless you believe you are eligible for the deferment, completing the form will not help reserve your spot. If you are having problems submitting your confirmation online:
Students will receive an automated email when the Deferment Form is received. We will review within 2 - 4 business days. Students who are granted deferment will receive confirmation of their spot in the program. If more information is required, you will receive an email from a representative of the office within the same time frame.
Once confirmation is received or the deferment request granted, students will receive an email confirming their spot within 24 -48 hours.
Any student who has been admitted to one program but wants to switch to another should complete the program change form. Completing that form does not guarantee admission to the new program. You will be reviewed for the new program and notified of a decision shortly.
If you are sure you do not want to attend the program you were admitted do not confirm (or cancel) your spot. If you still plan to study away at the location you were admitted if not allowed to switch programs, it is advised you confirm your spot.
You can only have one application on file with Global Programs per term. If you would like to reactivate your application, you must contact global.admissions@nyu.edu. Your admission to the program will be dependent on space and immigration restrictions and is not guaranteed.
If you are certain that no other program except your first choice program will be an option, you can request to be put on a wait list. By going on the wait list, you will be forfeiting your spot in your second choice or any other available program.
The wait list is not a first come first serve process. As space becomes available, we will review all students as part of a larger pool. If we determine that we are able to add students to the cohort, we will review the entire pool and consider the academic requirements of the applicants, in addition to the academic strength of each student, to identify who would be most eligible to receive the offer. We review the wait list cohort as a pool because we want to make the best choice possible, taking into account course preferences and class capacity.
Students who were conditionally admitted pending the current term grades are instructed to submit a midterm grade report. Upon completion, a scanned copy of this form should be sent to
global.admissions@nyu.edu.
