Fall Registration begins the week of April 20th. Make sure to review your Enrollment Appointment, found in the Enrollment Dates section on the home page of Albert, for the specific time registration opens for you. There’s also an MSW Registration FAQ for quick registration questions.

The Summer Drop/Add deadline is May 21. Be sure to finalize your Summer schedule by then.

This policy allows students to take social work-related, graduate-level classes at any of NYU’s Schools to fulfill their elective requirements.

Full details in the MSW Student Manual (pg. 19). 

Are you interested in studying material not already covered in an existing course at Silver? In that case, students can substitute a three-credit elective or a one-credit elective for either a traditional or research-independent study. 

Full details in the MSW Student Manual (pg. 19).

The deadline to withdraw from any Spring 2026 classes is Thursday, April 16th. After this date, you won’t be able to withdraw from a class or take a leave of absence this semester.

With graduation approaching, you can check if you’re on track to fulfill all of your graduation requirements; this is also known as auditing your degree. You can use your Program Pathway’s Checklist to audit your degree but when in doubt, reach out to your academic advisor.

Congratulations to our graduating students! You did it!! Don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any lingering questions. We are always here for you!

See you for our Summer Edition! If you have any questions in the meantime, please contact your Academic Advisor.

Enjoy the Spring weather,
