Welcome to NYU SPS
We are looking forward to meeting you

Orientation and Welcome Programs - Spring 2021

Orientation and onboarding events are key components of the NYU SPS student experience.  Our events have been thoughtfully curated to ensure that you have all the information you need for a successful academic journey. Some sessions are mandatory, while others are optional—but all will be offered virtually this fall.  While we have attempted to schedule our on-boarding and orientation events to be convenient for most time zones, we realize that our students come from far and wide and scheduled times may not always be possible.  Please note that many of our events will be recorded and links posted so that you can access sessions at a time that works best for you.
