If your institution has recently implemented any major financial aid policy, program, or initiative to make your institution more affordable to incoming students such as replacing loans with grants, or waiving costs for families below a certain income level please provide details:NYU now meets the full demonstrated need of our traditional first-year undergraduate students in New York without the expectation that students will take out loans. In addition, President Linda G. Mills expanded NYU's commitment to affordability through The NYU Promise, guaranteeing that every undergraduate - domestic and international - who started as a first year student admitted to our New York campus will not have to pay tuition if they have family income under $100,000 and hold typical assets and scholarships will be adjusted each year to meet annual tuition increases.
