The small things may be the most helpfull
Dear Students, Faculty, and Administrators,
We at NYU keenly remember the events of 9/11, and the outpouring of support that we received at that difficult time. In the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, it is our turn to help now.
The University is starting a process for accepting - on a space-available basis - undergraduate students from the New York region who are unable to attend their Gulf States college or university because of the devastation inflicted by Hurricane Katrina. These students will be admitted as special visiting students, not transfer or degree-seeking students, and their family must be within commuting distance (no housing will be available). There is no guarantee of admission.
Priority consideration will be given to those with pre-existing family relationships with the University, such as the siblings of currently enrolled NYU students, or the children of faculty or staff.
Information on the special application process is now posted on the NYU admissions office website (admissions.nyu.edu/katrina). We will begin evaluating applications on Monday, Labor Day (however, the admissions office will not be open or accepting phone calls that day), and we expect to notify accepted candidates no later than Thursday, September 8th. If you have family members who are interested, please urge them to apply immediately if they wish to be considered for this opportunity
