Doctoral Eligibility Requirements:
Nominated students must be in good academic standing. They must have a minimum grade point average of 3.3 and be actively engaged in dissertation research as certified by the department DGS or Chair. Departments must verify these requirements for each nominee.
Nominees must be within seven years of their first term of enrollment in the doctoral program. The common reasons for extension are (a) time off for an official leave of absence; (b) up to four semesters of fieldwork, if the field work occurred within the first seven years of enrollment and the student did not receive a GSAS or other institutional stipend for the semester(s); and (c) exceptional academic circumstances that are beyond the student's control (e.g., the academic advisor left; serious illness). Departments should contact gsas.fellowships@nyu.edu with questions.
Master's Eligibility Requirements:
Nominated students must have a minimum grade point average of 3.3, have successfully completed two-thirds of credits required by June 2025 (courses with I, NR, W, and F grades are not considered successfully completed), meet the GSAS policy requirements for time-to-degree, and be actively engaged in thesis research as certified by the department DGS or Chair. Departments must verify these requirements for each nominee.
Nominees must be within five years of their first term of enrollment in the master's program.
