Immediately

• Secure Your Place in the Fall 2013 Class: Complete the Enrollment Reply Form (PDF) and fax (516.686.7613) or mail it to the Office of Admissions.
   
• Decide if You Will Live at NYIT: Each NYIT campus offers full-service residential facilities. To live on campus, you must complete a Residential Hall Application and submit a nonrefundable $300 deposit. Download an application (PDF).

As Soon as Possible

• Apply for financial aid: NYIT offers more than $35 million in scholarships and financial aid each year. To be eligible for merit-based, state, or federal assistance, you must complete a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). Complete it online at fafsa.gov. NYIT's FAFSA school code is 002782. NYIT's state TAP code is 2120.
   
• Sign Up for Placement Exams and Register for Courses: Placement exams are required for all first-year students. Registration for summer placement exams is available now. Placement exams are open to first-year students beginning on June 4 and offered through the summer. Helpful hint: the earlier you take the exam, the better. After completing the exam, you will meet with an advisor to register for classes and formulate plans for the upcoming semester. Register for your exam >>
   
• Sign up for a B.S./D.O. Enrollment Day: All students admitted to the combined Bachelor of Science in Life Sciences/Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine (B.S./D.O.) program are required to attend an enrollment day to learn about the program from the department and to register for fall classes. B.S./D.O. students do not need to take placement exams. B.S./D.O. Enrollment Days are held on Monday, June 24 at 1 p.m. and Monday, Aug. 5 at 10 a.m. or 1 p.m. You must reserve your spot by emailing rsvp@nyit.edu with your name, NYIT Student ID, email address, telephone number, and prefered date and time.

Before Classes Start September 4, 2013

• Activate Your NYITConnect Account: Once you are admitted to NYIT, you can activate your username and create a password for your NYIT email and NYITConnect account, which allows you to conduct academic and financial business with NYIT. Both are accessible through the student portal MyNYIT. For directions on how to log in to MyNYIT for the first time, please follow five simple steps. 
   
• Submit Your High School Diploma: Since your admission to NYIT is contingent upon successful completion of course work in progress, you must ensure final official transcripts are filed with the Office of Admissions. Evidence of a high school diploma and graduation date is required. Please complete the High School Transcript Request Form and give it to your guidance counselor to send the necessary documents.
   
• Immunizations: NY State requires all students to show proof of immunizations before attending classes. Please complete the Student Immunization Form (PDF) prior to registering for classes and fax or mail it to NYIT's Office of Wellness Services. For more information, please call 516.686.3705 or email ows@nyit.edu.

These events give students and their families a chance to check out NYIT's campuses, classrooms, residential and dining facilities, and activities. Admitted students can also be an NYIT "Student for a Day." If you would like to visit at another time, we are happy to give you a tour and have you meet with an admissions counselor.
