In compliance with the Higher Education Opportunity Act (HEOA), NYUS provides full access to institutional and financial aid information. This includes details on the availability of institutional and federal financial aid programs, procedures for application, eligibility criteria, student loan policies, privacy of student records, refund policies, and requirements for withdrawal. Students are encouraged to use the College Navigator and Net Price Calculator tools to estimate costs of attendance and financial aid opportunities.

NYUS is firmly committed to fostering an inclusive and non-discriminatory environment in accordance with Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972. Title IX prohibits discrimination on the basis of sex or gender in any educational program or activity that receives federal financial assistance. Our Title IX Office, coordinated by Laurie Boom, along with deputies handling student and faculty concerns, ensures compliance through proactive training, support services, and investigation of complaints.

To comply with U.S. Department of Education regulations, NYUS enforces strict policies on peer-to-peer file sharing. Unauthorized distribution of copyrighted material using university networks is strictly prohibited. Students are required to respect intellectual property rights, and violations may result in disciplinary action. NYUS actively monitors compliance to ensure eligibility for Title IV funding and provides students with legal alternatives for accessing digital media.

The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) protects the privacy of student educational records. At NYUS, students over 18 years of age, or those enrolled in postsecondary education, are granted specific rights under FERPA. These rights include the ability to review their records, request amendments, and control disclosure of personal information. The university is committed to safeguarding student data and ensuring compliance with federal privacy laws.

NYUS places a strong emphasis on continuous improvement of academic programs through robust assessment methods. We utilize nationally benchmarked tools, such as the Collegiate Learning Assessment (CLA), alongside internal measures designed by our faculty. Assessments focus on evaluating critical thinking, problem-solving, communication, and writing skills. By systematically collecting and analyzing feedback, NYUS ensures that academic standards are met and that students graduate with the skills necessary to succeed in their chosen careers.
