See Washington Square Park (disambiguation Washington Square Park is one of the best-known of New York City 's 1700 public University Heights is a low income residential neighborhood geographically located in the west Bronx, New York City. NYU also had a desire to follow New York City's development further uptown. NYU's move to the Bronx occurred in 1894, spearheaded by the efforts of Chancellor Henry Mitchell MacCracken. Henry Mitchell MacCracken was an American educator (1840-1918 born in Oxford Ohio. [13] The University Heights campus was far more spacious than its predecessor was. As a result, most of the university’s operations along with the undergraduate College of Arts and Science and School of Engineering were housed there. The New York University College of Arts and Science ( CAS) is the oldest and largest academic unit of New York University, founded in 1832 With most of NYU's operations transferred to the new campus, the Washington Square campus declined; only the law school remained there until the establishment of Washington Square College in 1914. This college would become the downtown arts and sciences division of NYU.

In the late 1960s and early 1970s, financial crisis gripped the New York City government and the troubles spread to the city’s institutions, including NYU. [14] Feeling the pressures of imminent bankruptcy, NYU President James McNaughton Hester negotiated the sale of the University Heights campus to the City University of New York, which occurred in 1973.

Admissions and enrollment

NYU has a large, diverse student population representing more than 130 countries. [5] More than 70% of NYU's incoming freshmen are from outside the Tri-State Area. The Tri-State Region is commonly used in the area surrounding New York City to unambiguously refer to the greater metropolitan area. Ten percent of the students are from one of New York City's five boroughs and 20% are from 17 nearby counties. In New York City, a borough is a unique form of government which administers the five fundamental constituent parts that make up the consolidated city About 65% of NYU's undergraduates attended public high schools.

Admissions do not consider the financial situation of the students. Although the Princeton Review ranks NYU #1 in the category "Students Dissatisfied with Financial Aid," more than 50% of students receive financial aid. The Princeton Review (TPR is an American educational preparation company [19] 2007-2008 was a record-breaking application year for NYU, with the school receiving over 37,000 freshman applications (more than any private college or university in the United States), an increase of 8. 7% above the previous year. [61] The school's admissions rate fell to an NYU record low of 24% of applicants. [62] Because of the increase in the number of applications over the years, NYU has implemented a highly selective admissions policy. [63][64]

The Class of 2011 (entering Fall 2007) is made up of 4,395 students, 25. 4% of which were early decision candidates. [65] The middle 50% of SAT scores for the Class of 2011 fell between a 1300 and a 1430 while the middle 50% of ACT scores were between 29 and 31. The average High School GPA was a 3. 63 and 70% of incoming students were in the top 10% of their class. [65]

New York University is currently in the middle of a seven-year, $2. 5 billion fundraising effort called "The Campaign for NYU". Fundraising is the process of soliciting and gathering Money or other gifts in-kind by requesting donations from individuals businesses charitable foundations or governmental [2] Started in 2001, this campaign is the University's largest in its history, and plans to "raise $1 million per day for scholarships and financial aid, faculty building, new academic initiatives, and enhancing NYU's physical facilities". A scholarship is an award of access to an institution or a financial aid award for an individual student scholar for the purpose of furthering their Education Student financial aid refers to funding intended to help students pay education expenses including Tuition and fees Room and board, books and supplies etc [69] The campaign has already included a $50 million gift from the Tisch family (after which one building and the art school are named) and a $60 million gift from six trustees called "The Partners Fund", aimed at hiring new faculty. Tisch School of the Arts (known more commonly as Tisch or TSOA) is one of the 15 schools that make up New York University (NYU Trustee is a Legal term that refers to a holder of property on behalf of a beneficiary.

Included in the "NYU 200" plans are increasing resident and academic space, hiring exemplary faculty, and involving the New York City community in a transparent planning process. NYU hopes to make their buildings more environmentally friendly as well, which will be facilitated by an evaluation of all campus spaces. [73] As a part of this plan, NYU purchased 118 kilowatt-hours of wind power during the 2006-2007 academic year – the largest purchase of wind power by any university in the country and any institution in New York City. Wind Power is the conversion of wind energy into a useful form such as electricity using Wind turbines At the end of 2007 worldwide capacity of wind-powered generators was [74] As a result, the EPA ranked NYU as the greenest college in the country in its annual College & University Green Power Challenge.

During the University Heights era, an apparent rift evolved with some organizations distancing themselves from students from the downtown schools. The exclusive Philomathean Society operated from 1832-1888 (formally giving way in 1907 and reconstituted into the Andiron Club). The Philomathean Society at New York University is a student society that originated at New York University. Included among the Andiron’s regulations was “Rule No. 11: Have no relations save the most casual and informal kind with the downtown schools”. [81] The Eucleian Society, rival to the Philomathean Society, was founded in 1832. The Eucleian Society is a student society begun at New York University in 1832 The Knights of the Lamp was a social organization founded in 1914 at the School of Commerce. This organization met every full moon and had the glowworm as its mascot. [82] In addition, NYU’s first yearbook was formed by fraternities and "secret societies" at the university. [83]

New York University has traditions which have persisted across campuses. Since the beginning of the Twentieth century initiation ceremonies have welcomed incoming NYU freshmen. The twentieth century of the Common Era began on A freshman, fresher, fish, or frosh is a first-year student in an educational institution At the Bronx University Heights Campus, seniors grabbed unsuspecting first-year students and took them to a horse-watering trough. The freshmen were dunked head first into what was known colloquially as “the fountain of knowledge”. This underground initiation took place until the 1970s. [84] Today freshman take part in university sponsored activities during what is called "Welcome Week". In addition, throughout the year the University traditionally holds Apple Fest (an apple-themed country fest started at the University Heights campus), Violet Ball (a dance in the atrium of the library), Strawberry Fest (featuring New York City's longest Strawberry Shortcake), and the semi-annual Midnight Breakfast where Student Affairs administrators serve students free breakfast before finals. Shortcake is a sweet Biscuit (in the American sense that is a crumbly Baking soda - or Baking powder -leavened Bread, known in British

Greek life

Greek life first formed on the NYU campus in 1837 when Psi Upsilon chartered its Delta Chapter. Fraternities and sororities (from the Latin words la frater and la soror, meaning "brother" and "sister" respectively are fraternal Fraternity Origin In the 18th and 19th centuries college extracurricular activities were primarily intellectual exercises in the form of literary debates readings and oratorical [10] The first fraternities at NYU were social ones. With their athletic, professional, intellectual, and service activities, later groups sought to attract students who also formed other groups. Since then, Greek letter organizations have proliferated to include 25 social fraternities and sororities. Approximately 2% of NYU students choose to join fraternities or sororities. [85]

Four governing boards oversee Greek life at the university. The Interfraternity Council (IFC) has jurisdiction over all 14 recognized fraternities on campus. Six sororities are under the jurisdiction of the Panhellenic Council (PhC); four multicultural sororities maintain membership in the Multicultural Greek Council (MGC). All three of the aforementioned boards are managed under the auspices of the Inter-Greek Council.

Greek organizations have historical significance at NYU. Zeta Psi Fraternity of North America , Alpha Epsilon Pi, and Delta Sigma Pi were founded at NYU. The Zeta Psi Fraternity of North America was founded June 1, 1847 as a social college fraternity.
