Will the Student’s Guide at NYU be combined with Poly’s Student Guide?

Not at the moment since there are many differences in policies and issues between Poly and NYU. However, as Poly transitions toward becoming a school of NYU, the guides will become more nearly identical and can be integrated.

Will services for graduate students (i.e., childcare subsidy, babysitting registry, etc.) be available to Poly’s graduate students?

Not until Poly becomes consolidated with NYU (vs. its current affiliation). The childcare subsidy is provided by NYU Student Affairs to full-time graduate student and provides $200 per child per semester. Access to the babysitting registry and carebridge may be considered, but Poly and/or Poly students would incur some cost.

Will commuters and transfers at Poly be served by the Student Resource Center.

Telephone and online resources will be provided. Specific programmatic initiatives (i.e., Breakfast for Dinner, Commuter Lunch, Commuter Preview Day, Discoveries, Faculty In and Of the City, etc.) have a nominal fee and will be available to Poly students.
