Visit NYU Because Seeing is Believing

New York City: Two Locations, One Great City

There’s no better way to get the inside scoop on what it’s like to be part of the NYU community than hearing straight from the horse’s mouth. Or is that the bobcat’s mouth? Either way, come visit us and learn firsthand from current students why there’s nothing like NYU.

At all of our events, we talk about the full NYU global community, which includes our degree-granting campuses in New York City, Abu Dhabi and Shanghai. This helps set the stage for where you might find your fit globally, academically, and personally. 

Here are all the ways you can visit campus: 

• Information Sessions and Tours
• High School Programs Information Session
• Group Tours
• Class Visits
• Self-Guided Tours
• Open House
• Events in Your City
• Veterans College Access Workshop
• Visit Abu Dhabi
• Visit Shanghai

Information Sessions and Tours

Just about any day of the week, you (and up to two additional guests) can visit one of our two New York City locations to meet with undergraduate admissions officers and take a tour led by a current student. Sessions take about two hours. Spots fill up fast, so please register in advance.

Drop-in Policy: Our drop-in list opens 45 minutes before each session, but does not guarantee entry into the session. If space is available, we will accommodate a maximum of two total drop-ins per party.

The NYU Bonomi Family Admissions Center will be closing at 4:00PM on Tuesday, July 3 and remain closed through Wednesday, July 4. We will reopen at 9:00AM on Thursday, July 5.

Group Tours

Offered to high schools that want to send a large group to NYU. Includes an information session with an admissions official and a campus tour. Make sure to schedule three weeks in advance.
