Stay Informed | Fall Edition

MSW Students,

We’re so excited to be starting a new academic year together!

Below you will find important information to keep in mind as we start the Fall semester.

For All Students

Support and Resources

Bookmark and save these links so that you can find collections of resources and services if you need them:

Student Services webpage: features resources like laptop loan, childcare groups, and more.
Financial Aid and Scholarships webpage: features scholarship guidelines, contact info and the NYU Student Emergency Fund.
Section IV of the MSW Student Manual: hosts links to Silver’s offices that provide support on student life, career preparation, financial aid and wellness.
Student Newsletters (such as this one!): help you stay up to date on different events and opportunities around Silver.
For concerns related to bias, microaggressions, discrimination, and harassment incidents, students can contact the Silver Climate Support Protocol (SCST), their Academic Advisor, their Practicum Instructor, or report an incident to the NYU Bias Response Line.
NYU Handshake: helps you look for work-study opportunities, internships, part-time and full-time jobs.

Moses Center

New York University provides reasonable accommodations to qualified students through the Moses Center. Students who would like to request accommodations should fill out the New Student Accommodations Application as soon as possible to ensure their request can be reviewed.

More information can be found on the Moses Center website.

Waitlists

The deadline for Add/Drop is Monday, September 16th. If you are currently on the waitlist for a preferred class, please note enrollment into waitlisted courses is unfortunately not guaranteed.

In the case that there is a scheduling conflict with your practicum placement that cannot be changed, students can begin the process of a Waitlist Request, outlined here in the Registration FAQ and in the MSW Student Manual (pg. 22-23).

For Returning Students

One-Credit Electives

Registering After Add/Drop

Students can still enroll in one-credit electives after the Add/Drop period has ended as long as the elective meets these requirements:

It is still open (there is space in the class).
It has not yet begun (the first class meeting has not occurred yet).

If both of these two requirements are met, please email the Silver Enrollment Services Office at silver.registration@nyu.edu to request to be enrolled.

Withdrawals and Refunds

Students must attend every hour of one-credit electives. However, students can still withdraw and get a full refund and no W (withdrawal) grade up until 24 hours after the first class session.

To request a withdrawal, email the Silver Enrollment Services Office at silver.registration@nyu.edu within the 24-hour time window.

After the 24-hour deadline, withdrawal will not be possible unless a student has an excused absence. In this case, they should contact the Silver Enrollment Services Office and their Academic Advisor as soon as possible.

Details for this process can be found in the MSW Student Manual (pg. 29).

We are more than happy to help, so please don’t be afraid to reach out to your Academic Advisor.

Sincerely,
