NYU Tuition Reform Campaign Community Petition

We, the members of the NYU community, call upon the university to better ensure equality of access, experience, and opportunity for all of its students.

We stand together in support of the Tuition Reform Action Coalition's Platform for Tuition Reform and respectfully call upon NYU to:

1. Guarantee a stabilized tuition rate for undergraduate students by aligning any tuition increases to the annual inflation rate. Tuition stabilization must be automatic for all undergraduate students. NYU must be held accountable for any decision to raise tuition beyond the inflation rate.

2. Carry out a comprehensive financial aid reform policy that would increase economic diversity and decrease the financial burden on students by:

(a) Meeting 100\% of students' federally calculated need
(b) Cutting the loans/jobs portion of the financial aid package by 50\%
(c) Eliminating required family contributions from families of four with an annual income of $40,000 or less.


We ask for President Sexton and other members of the NYU Administration to work with us so that, together, we can truly create a private university in the public service.

Sincerely,
