Current Students

  • All US citizens and eligible non-citizens must complete the  FAFSA (NYU School Code 002785) each academic year to be reviewed for federal financial aid eligibility and to be considered for additional donor-funded scholarship opportunities.
  • Undergraduate students who have experienced a change in circumstances since applying for financial aid may have other options available, depending on their circumstances.
  • Students who are experiencing unexpected, unforeseen, and unavoidable emergency expenses may apply for the NYU Student Emergency Fund.  Once you have exhausted all other resources, please contact the NYU Meyers Office of Admissions.
