Military Monday Accelerated Admission Day
Our Undergraduate and Graduate Admission Offices are hosting an Accelerated Admission Day especially for veteran, reservist, and active duty military applicants.
Date: Monday, May 13, 2013
Time: 9:00am – 5:00pm
Event takes place on both the New York City and Westchester campuses
Make an appointment in advance with Admission, bring a completed application and all supporting documents with you and we can provide you with an admission decision that same day*. Plus we will waive the application fee ($50 for an undergraduate application, $70 for a graduate application).
Admission counselors will be available to review your application materials and answer any questions about the admission process, financial aid, or our academic programs.
Our Office of Student Assistance Veteran Team will also be available to assist you with benefit-related questions.
*Undergraduate applicants to our Performing Arts programs are not eligible to participate due to the unique application requirements. For Graduate program applicants, a small number of applications for certain Master’s programs may require additional review and a decision will follow soon afterwards.
