Admissions
Applicants often seek definitive numbers and statistics to quantify an acceptable NYU student, but no such absolute profile exists. The school aims to create a holistic application review process, learning as much as possible about a person from several simple pieces of paper. That being said, this is still a highly competitive institution. Even well-rounded, three-dimensional students must be at the top of their high school class while enrolled in a challenging curriculum composed of honors, AP, and/or IB courses. Solid performance on the SAT or ACT is a must for all applicants, and two SAT Subject Tests are required except for applicants who must submit a portfolio or audition as part of their admissions requirements. Applicants whose native language is not English must also submit results of the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL).

Financial Aid
No doubt everyone knows that New York City is an expensive place to live and study. It should come as no surprise that tuition for one academic year (including room, board, fees, etc.) is around $50,000. Fortunately, the university understands that spending this amount of money on higher education is a major financial commitment. Therefore, the financial aid policy is quite simple: If students find that this is the best institution to meet their educational needs and interests, the Office of Financial Aid will work with students and their families to help make it an affordable option. In fact, over seventy-four percent of full-time undergraduates receive some form of financial aid.
Students seeking financial aid should apply for assistance by submitting one form: the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). Students are encouraged to fill out the FAFSA via the Internet, which is the fastest and easiest method of applying for financial aid. With the information you provide on the FAFSA, the U.S. Department of Education uses a federally mandated formula to assess a family

Social Life and Activities
There is always something to do at NYU. This is not an overstatement in the least; in fact, it may be an understatement. The campus resides in and is part of Greenwich Village, the most hip, vibrant, young, eclectic, bohemian neighborhood in all of New York City. Being a college student in this creatively charged neighborhood, in the city that never sleeps, is a win-win situation. Students here are never bored; they never grapple with the age-old question,
