Join representatives from the Office of Global Programs on studying away in NYU's global network. This webinar will help you support your student by gaining a better understanding of the study away program options, health and safety, costs, and how students are supported before and during their study away experience. 

NYU will be closed from 4pm Thursday, December 22 until 9am on Tuesday, January 3, 2023. While the university is closed, there are still services, resources and staff available to support students who must stay on-campus over the break, and for those who return to campus early in the New Year during J-Term (January-Term). 

Refer to our Winter Break Guide, which we shared with students yesterday, to understand adjusted operating hours as well as the programs, people and resources available before Spring classes resume on January 23, 2023.

Study away - or the more familiar term of “study abroad” - is a key component of a student’s NYU experience.  Nearly 80% of students state that the global opportunities offered by NYU is one of the top reasons they come to us. And those who do study away regularly report how transformational an experience it was for them. Study away has also been shown to have a positive impact on academic performance and 4-year graduation rates, not to mention positive impacts on post-graduation employability. Bottom line, study away is an important opportunity for your student to leverage while at NYU.

Read about study away in our Parents and Families Guide to Study Away which provides an overview of NYU's study away locations, FAQs, staff and site director spotlights, and more, and talk with your student as they plan for next year and beyond. Join our study away Parents and Families webinar on January 10 to learn more!

The Wasserman Center for Career Development is NYU’s central career development resource, providing services and support to undergraduate and graduate students as well as alumni with a bachelor’s, master’s, graduate certificate, or doctoral degree from nearly every NYU school. Wasserman meets students whereever they are in their career journey, helps them examine and internalize what matters the most to them, and provides them with the guidance, exposure, and support to take action and pursue meaningful careers with confidence.

Winter break/January is a great time for students to think deeply about their professional development. Students can make in-person or virtual coaching appointments through December 22nd and from January 3 onward. In addition, Wasserman has a range of online resources accessible anytime as students consider their next professional step. 

Your student can now review and pay their Spring 2023 bill in the NYU Electronic Suite (eSuite). Your student can designate someone as an “authorized user” to their university billing account, which grants access to anyone helping pay tuition and fees. Only a student can add someone as an “authorized user” to their eSuite account. 

With payment due on January 5th, we thought it might be helpful to share this video series on paying bills, as well as how students can add authorized users to their eSuite account.
