NYU SPS Welcome and Orientation - Fall 2025

Welcome to NYU SPS. Orientation and onboarding events provide important introductions to the NYU SPS student experience.

Participating is like getting a copy of the treasure map with the path clearly indicated.  Some sessions are mandatory, while others are optional—but all have been created to ensure a seamless transition and to quickly instill a sense of belonging in this very special community. .
