Benefits of On-Campus Living

Convenience

Convenient access to your classes, the library, campus events, athletic facilities, the dining hall, computer labs, and everything New York City has to offer.

All in One

The Residence Life charge is paid with a one-time tuition fee each semester and covers high-speed Internet, wireless access, DIRECTV, satellite cable, central air conditioning, telephone, utilities, and more.

Involvement

Living in on-campus housing keeps you close to the heart of life at NYU-Poly. There’s no better place to get involved in student organizations, on-campus events, or get to know other students like yourself. With student lounges, a tennis court, and more, the Residence Hall has the resources you need to stay involved.

Support

Residence Life staff is available for assistance, mediation, and as a resource to help you navigate your new life at NYU-Poly. And your fellow students may provide the best support system of all as you grow together at NYU-Poly.

Safety

The Residence Hall is protected by security staff who are there to see that you’re kept safe 24 hours a day. The Residence Hall also makes room safes available for all students to rent, giving you the added security you need to know that your valuables are safe.
