Traditions
Traditions, time-honored customs that celebrate significant and memorable events and periods in our histories, always have a very special place when it comes to University life.
SPS has a growing body of traditions: Spirit Week, an annual fall event filled with fun activities that bring our diverse community together through alumni networking, community service, socials, and Global Village, when students share their diverse cultures through food, music, and performances. Each academic year we look forward to the Spring Cruise, Winter Ball and the NYU All-University Games.
SPS on the Town
Take advantage of all that New York City has to offer through SPS On The Town events, NYU’s Museum Gateway, and the NYU Box Office.
Discounted tickets to Broadway and Off-Broadway shows, sporting events, musical concerts, museums and more give SPS students the opportunity to experience some of the City's top attractions.

Being a transfer and commuter student, it's hard to find where you belong in such a large university, but joining Student Council has helped form relationships with many extraordinary people I may not have had the opportunity to meet otherwise.Andrea Alva-Araya, President, Undergraduate Student Council

I joined student council because I felt this void during my freshman year and wanted to get more involved. So, I joined and I'm still involved because it was one of the best decisions I've ever made at NYU.Shannon Morgan, Senator
