Beyond skeletal analysis, students examine the ethical, historical, and methodological foundations of forensic anthropology.

For many, New York Fashion Week evokes images of shimmering gowns and camera flashes. But for Daniella Leonzo, the real magic isn’t on the runway—it’s behind the scenes. She met Lindsey Solomon, the founder of PR agency Lindsey Media at a public relations panel on campus. When an MCC adviser later sent out an email announcing that Solomon needed interns for Fashion Week, Daniella jumped at the opportunity, and the rest is fashion history.

NYU Steinhardt student Daniella Leonzo turned her Media, Culture, and Communication major into a role at New York Fashion Week.

NYU receives applications from all over the world. School systems and their resources vary greatly. Not all students can easily obtain a recommendation from both a teacher and a counselor, and for some students, the teachers and counselors that they have access to might not be the people who can best speak to their readiness for college. By reducing our requirement to one letter and expanding who could write that letter, we hope to ease this pressure point for applicants. https://bit.ly/4x17c1z

Do you have questions about the NYU letter of recommendation requirement? Admissions Counselor Risa has answers to all your burning questions!

Wellbeing isn’t a destination—it’s part of your everyday rhythm. It’s shaped by what’s happening around and within you, and it looks different for everyone. At NYU, we believe wellbeing is a shared responsibility.

The NYU Student Wellbeing team champions this commitment by connecting students with clinical services and other resources that support physical, mental, emotional, and social health. https://bit.ly/3sKDTQy
