How to Apply


Our Application Opens on February 1st

The Application

Admission to GSTEM is competitive, and decisions are based on the strength of your high school academic work, your essays, your STEM activities, and your recommendation. We strongly encourage students to apply as early as possible as there is limited space in the program.

Required documents for consideration

  • NYU Summer Program’s Online Application
  • A cumulative and up-to-date high school transcript(s) starting with 9th grade (Official copies only, signed by the school)
  • 4 essays
  • Letter of recommendation from a teacher, advisor, or counselor

Important Dates & Deadlines

  • February 1st – Application Opens
  • March 15th – Early Admissions Deadline.  Students who apply by this date will receive their decision letter in mid-April
  • March 16th – April 15th Rolling Admissions.  Students who apply during this period will be accepted on a rolling basis
  • April 16th – Our application will be closed

Applications will not be reviewed for admission until all documents are received.

Documents such as essays and transcripts should be uploaded to the NYU Online Application.  However, schools may also email transcripts to admissions.docs@nyu.edu or mail them to this address:
