Alliance for the Promotion of Urdu Studies at NYU Urdu-wallay at New York University

We, the Urdu-wallay at New York University, are working to promote the Urdu language and the literary and social culture it is rooted in. Originating in South Asia, Urdu brought together people from many regions and continues to do so to this day and is now the national language of Pakistan. At NYU, we provide a platform for students at NYU who wish to establish or re-establish contact with the language of their heritage.

Attention Urdu-Wallahs at NYU:

Enhance your experience and knowledge of the Urdu Language by taking Elementary I if you cannot read and write, Intermediate I if you can read and write at a basic level, and Advanced Urdu I (Readings in Urdu Lit) if you can read and write reasonably well. You will not get an opportunity to advance your Urdu skills and knowledge after this, ever again in your life.

Let's do something for Urdu today!
