Yes. The NYU application packet includes a paper “Early Decision Program Financial Aid Application”. All Early Decision students who want to be considered for need-based financial aid must file this form by November 1st. Early Decision students who receive awards must confirm the information submitted on the Early Decision Program Financial Aid Application by filing the 2009-2010 Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) after January 1, 2009, and before February 15, 2009. All Early Decision students are considered for merit awards whether or not they file an application for an estimated package. However, Early Decision students who do not file the Early Decision Program Financial Aid Application WILL NOT be considered for NYU need-based financial aid at a later date, even if they file the FAFSA after January 1st.
