Around 12.2% of candidates were accepted to NYU’s New York Campus this year, which is another record in itself. Less than 10% of applicants were accepted into NYU’s three undergraduate colleges - Stern School of Business (7%), Rory Meyers College of Nursing (3%), and College of Arts and Sciences (7%). 

Jonathan Williams, Assistant Vice President for Undergraduate Admissions, commented, ‘Even with the ongoing challenges presented by the pandemic, this group inspires us, coming from a wide range of interests, passions, and backgrounds to make up one of the most diverse applicant pools in NYU history’.

In spite of the immense number of applicants, NYU remained committed to ensuring diversity and inclusion of all talented students. It also made sure that the Class of 2026 with a strength of around 5700 students has no ethnic or religious majority. 

As reported by the University, the class of 2026 has a representative from 107 countries, members from 49 states in the USA, and the district of Columbia. 66% of the domestic students admitted are individuals of color. Moreover, 19.4% of the admitted students are the first in their families to attend college.

NYU maintained a test-optional admissions policy for this year’s application cycle due to Covid and also plans to do the same for the session 2023-24. In spite of that, the median SAT score of the admitted class is 1550 - which is also another record.

Commenting on NYU’s test-optional admissions policy, Mr. Williams said, ‘NYU’s record-breaking selectivity and test scores have not clouded the passion of the admissions team for the unique and compelling stories of each applicant. One student created a 501(c)3 to address global racial change and has grown this initiative to reach 9 countries with over 200 members. Another student established a home-food delivery program to help support his family who had lost their source of income due to the pandemic. The bold and resilient nature of our students is the true story of the Class of 2026.’

Admitted students have until May 1, 2022, to respond to their offers of Admission. New York University will be conducting a combination of virtual and in-person events for these students throughout the month of April.
