As NYU Shanghai announced its final round of admissions offers to International students for the Class of 2027 at the end of March, Chinese admitted students and their families from all over the country were invited to visit the New Bund campus on April 30 and May 1. The last welcome session will be held by the Undergraduate Admissions Office this coming weekend.
Admitted Chinese students and their parents joined campus tours led by current student ambassadors.
They visited various spots on campus, including the Center for Career Development, IMA studio, and Student Fitness Center.
Admitted students and their parents also had the chance to ask current students, parents, and staff from the Admissions Office questions on everything from academics to extracurriculars. After the campus tour, admitted students and their families boarded a shuttle bus to visit Jingyao Residence Halls.
Student ambassador Li Peirong '24 said he was struck by the admitted students' educational achievements and language skills. “These students have a natural curiosity and willingness to step outside of their comfort zones to explore the world around them.”
Li said leading the tours evoked memories of his own decision-making process and he said sharing NYU Shanghai with others helped him reflect on the uniqueness of this joint-venture university.
