The Paul McGhee Division

ADMISSION

The Paul McGhee Division of the School of Continuing and Professional Studies at NYU offers undergraduate degree programs for adult students who are seeking a small college experience within a major, urban research university.

Our admission process is selective, and McGhee applicants are evaluated individually on their ability to benefit from, and contribute to, the robust learning environment that we offer. Successful McGhee students are proactive individuals who take a meaningful role in charting their educational and career plans.

The Admissions Committee welcomes applicants from many different backgrounds who demonstrate the following characteristics:

  • Motivation to learn and to succeed in a university environment
  • Self-direction in setting goals and meeting deadlines
  • Maturity, responsibility, and focus
  • Intellectual curiosity about the world in which we live
  • Ability to communicate well both orally and in writing
