I am interested in learning more about scholarships from NYU Wagner, is there any information you could give me?
NYU Wagner offers a range of merit-based scholarships, fellowships, and assistantships.
What is the application notification timetable?
The admissions review at NYU Wagner is conducted on a modified rolling basis. Each deadline has a specific notification date. Once an application is completed, it will be forwarded to the Admissions Committee for review. An application is considered complete and ready for review when all required materials are received in the admissions office.
Where can I find resources for housing and living in New York?
Whether you live on or off campus, are here for the summer, or are living in faculty housing, you will find yourself living "in and of" New York City. Manhattan's vibrant Greenwich Village neighborhood is home to many of NYU's campus buildings.

Can full-time students work in the first semester?
Wagner does not recommend that full-time students work in their first semester. Rather, it is advisable to focus on adapting to the new setting of graduate school; also, core courses are a significant time commitment, requiring additional recitation/lab sections in addition to coursework. Once full-time students enter their second semester, most will work part-time.
Does Wagner offer interviews?
Interviews are only requested for those who are fellowship finalists, as well as EMPA and dual-degree candidates, at the request of the review committee.
Do you require financial statements during the admissions process?
For admissions purposes we do not require financial statements. If and when you are admitted, NYU's Office of Global Services will follow up with further instructions to clarify the process.
Can students submit additional materials to improve their application while on the waitlist?
Yes, any additional materials sent to the admissions office (email: wagner.admissions@nyu.edu) will be included in your application file. However, they are neither necessary nor expected.
