Real Estate and Housing, an administrative affiliate of NYU Grossman Long Island School of Medicine, shares the goal of providing safe and comfortable living environments for students, including those whose gender identities differ from the sexes assigned to them at birth.

Due to limitations in housing availability, there is no guarantee that housing preferences can be met, but we are committed to working with the associate dean of NYU Grossman Long Island School of Medicine’s Office of Student Affairs and those who are seeking housing to make best efforts for accommodations.

Charges, Billing, and Payments

The NYU Bursar’s Office bills medical students for housing costs for the fall and spring terms.

Please note that Housing Services staff cannot view bills from the NYU Bursar’s Office. For more information on charges and billing, contact the NYU Bursar’s Office.
