Students must complete a nomination form, including a short essay, and upload their resume/CV for each award they wish to apply for.
Students must also get one or two letters of recommendation from any NYU-affiliated faculty member, adjunct, or supervisor.
For Fall 2026, we have updated the student self-nomination/recommendation platform to InfoReady. Please review the PDF or Video guide before you complete your application.
Please review the FAQ page before submitting questions.
