NYU Study Away Interest Form Review Process

The interest form review is a holistic process that considers the complete academic record, materials and  unique program requirements submitted by each student. On this page you will find all the details needed to be considered to study away for a semester or academic year with NYU Global Programs at an NYU global site.

Eligibility Criteria

  • Registered as a full time student at an accredited US college or university
  • Completed freshman year of study (two full semesters) and will be 18 or older prior to beginning of term away
  • Suggested GPA of 3.0 or higher; students with lower GPA's are encouraged to provide insight to their academic goals in their application
  • Students who have completed at least one year of college but are not presently enrolled or who have graduated are also eligible to apply; however, priority is given to students currently matriculated
  • Students on academic or disciplinary probation are ineligible to study away
  • Students currently on leave from their institution may be required to return to their home campus and successfully complete one academic semester (Fall or Spring) of full-time course work before enrolling in NYU Study Away; this is determined on a case-by-case basis

Items Needed to Submit Interest Form

In order to be considered to study away for a semester or an academic year, we require the following information to consider your interest form complete:

  • General Background Information- Name, Email, Address, etc
  • Term Selection- Fall Semester or Spring Semester. Academic Year (Fall & Spring Semester) applicants should select Fall Semester.
  • 1st choice program selection - 2nd and 3rd choice locations are optional*
  • Transcript
  • Academic Details- Major, Class Standing, Anticipated Graduation Year
  • Study Abroad Advisor Approval Form (from home institution)
  • Citizenship Details
  • Emergency Contact Information
  • Location-Specific Details

*A second or third choice will be reviewed if there is limited space at your first choice location. By selecting additional choices this does not decrease your likelihood of receiving an offer to enroll at your first choice location. If you do not select a second or third choice, this does not mean you are guaranteed an offer at your first choice location. It is possible you will be placed on a waitlist should your first choice location be at capacity.

Once you submit your intrerest form, you will have access to apply for additional optional opportunities (where available). Access to opportunities is based on your first choice location:

  • Specialized Academic Program
  • For-credit and Non-credit Internships
