""Community" is the word that stands out when I reflect upon this program: the community of friends and family that encouraged me to pursue my MBA, the community of peers and professors that taught and supported me along the way and the community of lifelong friends that I have gained as a result. I am grateful for these people who truly saw me, encouraged me, and trusted me to support them too - a community of people I now call family.”

NYU can sometimes sponsor international students. The NYU Office of Global Services (OGS) handles immigration matters for all students, faculty, and staff seeking immigration and visa support when traveling to NYU locations in the US and around the world. NYU can sponsor international students for F-1 student status for the EMBA NY program, but this is not available for the EMBA DC program given the program format. Prospective students should refer to the OGS website for more information.
