<p>** NYU Updates **</p>
<p>Let’s start with a few words on how we will go about updating the admissions web site for coming year.</p>
<p>The most important thing for you to know is that while there are some important changes for next year (2008-2009), it will take us a while to review our entire site and bring it up to date. As a result, we will not have all of the changes and updates posted for several weeks. Until then, some information on our site will be updated and some will not be changing, but some may be changing even though the change is not yet reflected on the site. Please visit again to be sure that you have the most up-to-date information. When we have everything updated, we’ll post a message to let you know!</p>
<p>What’s new for 2008 - 2009</p>
<p>Here’s a list of what’s definitely new for next year. There are several other items currently under discussion that might later be added to this list, but we are not certain of their status at this time. So, be sure to check back again! We’ll provide additional information on each of these changes on our web pages as our site is updated.</p>
<p>The freshman application deadline for Regular Decision is changing to January 1, 2009 from January 15, 2009. (The freshman Early Decision deadline is not changing; it remains at November 1, 2008.) </p>
<p>Effective this year, NYU will no longer publish our own paper application for admission. We encourage students to apply online, but those who would prefer to use a paper application should use the paper version of the Common Application. </p>
<p>Our policy concerning transfer credit for high school students who are taking college-level courses while in high school is changing. We will no longer grant credit for college courses that also satisfy high school graduation requirements. </p>
<p>We are adding a new bachelor’s degree program in our Arts and Science area - Global Liberal Studies - that will include significant study abroad opportunities. </p>
<p>Our Leonard N. Stern School of Business is adding a new bachelor’s degree program - Business and Political Economy - which will combine courses in business, economics, and politics with three full semesters of global study. </p>
<p>Our popular General Studies Program - our two-year liberal arts curriculum that enables students to seamlessly transition to our four-year programs - has a new name: Liberal Studies Program. </p>
<p>We’re moving! As of June 1, 2008, the new mailing address for the Admissions Processing Center will be:
New York University
Undergraduate Admissions Processing Center
665 Broadway. 11th Floor
