Student COVID-19 Emergency Relief
The NYU Emergency Relief Fund was created as a way for NYU friends, alumni, and parents to help support students in the face of new challenges presented by COVID-19. 100% of all donations will directly support our students’ most urgent needs as they adapt to changing circumstances.
Support for Faculty, Researchers, and Employees
Medical Support
Faculty, Staff, and Administrators should contact their personal medical providers for support. Employees with medical coverage through an NYU employee health plan (UnitedHealthcare (UHC), Aetna, and Oxford) can access COVID-19 resources and information online or by calling the Member Services number on the back of your medical ID card. Member cost share for COVID-19 testing prescribed by a physician is waived for members of an NYU employee health plan.
