Class Visits
Sit in on a Course
Sitting in on an NYU Wagner course gives prospective and newly admitted students an opportunity to see first-hand an NYU classroom, interact with current students, and share in the knowledge of NYU Wagner's dynamic faculty. Most classes are conveniently offered in the evening. Class visits are subject to availability and offered on a first-come, first-served basis. Prospective students can register for up to two class visits in a given semester.
You can see the available class sessions using the registration calendar. It is necessary to register and bring a ticket (along with an ID) to sit in on an NYU Wagner course. Registration closes 24 hours prior to the class start time.
