How Is The School Involved With The Local Native Community?
NYU acknowledges that it was founded on Lenape lands and seeks to honor the Lenape people, as well as all Native and Indigenous communities. Each year, we award Lenape Scholarships to incoming first-year Native American students who are engaged with their culture and communities. While at NYU, students can join the Native American and Indigenous Student Group and participate in the Native Studies Forum, which hosts events, promotes research, and partners with communities in NYC like the American Indian Community House. Students can also take classes or declare a minor in Native American and Indigenous Studies. After graduating from NYU, students can remain connected through the NYU Native & Indigenous Alumni Network.
