New York, NY, US
A private university fully embedded in New York City, with no traditional enclosed campus.
NYU has no single enclosed campus — its buildings are woven directly into Greenwich Village and lower Manhattan, so campus life happens throughout the city itself. Its Stern School of Business and Tisch School of the Arts are both highly regarded, and its global network of degree-granting campuses (Abu Dhabi, Shanghai) lets students study away within the same university.

Informational only — scholarship amounts, deadlines and even which schemes are running change often (sometimes per intake), so treat this as a starting point, not a guarantee. Always confirm current details directly with the scholarship provider or NYU's financial aid office.
Scholarship access for international students is more limited than for US citizens — most need-based financial aid programmes are domestic-only, and only a small number of universities are 'need-blind' or meet full demonstrated need for international applicants. Merit scholarships (not tied to financial need) are more widely available and are the main route for most applicants.
Most US universities in this tool are private and do not offer significant need-based aid to international students — check each university's own international financial aid policy before assuming support is available.
