Campus Housing

There are currently three residential buildings for medical students, and single students are assured of receiving a housing offer. Application forms for housing will be furnished to matriculating students.

The Rubin Hall of Residence is a fourteen-story dormitory building adjacent to the School, with a few two-room suites and primarily single occupancy rooms; each single room has a private sink. Only suites contain private bathrooms. Common, co-ed bathrooms, and shared kitchens are located on each floor. Electricity and NYU School of Medicine network access with email and fast Internet are included in the rent. Please note that air conditioners are not provided by the School. Most incoming students are assigned to Rubin Hall.

Arnold and Marilyn Greenberg Hall, 545 First Avenue, is a ten story mixed-use building. The student apartments include studios as well as larger apartments shared by three students each. First-year students are rarely assigned to Greenberg Hall, but if they are, first-year students may not retain their assigned housing in Greenberg Hall, but must enter the housing lottery for the next academic year. Central air-conditioning is provided; electricity is excluded from the rent rates. NYU School of Medicine network access with email and fast Internet is included.

The Skirball Residential Tower, at 564 First Avenue is also adjacent to the School. Student apartments include studios, apartments shared by two students each, and a few apartments for student couples. First-year students are not assigned to Skirball.

There are 24-hour security services and ID card access in the buildings. Laundry facilities are on the premises. There are no storage facilities and pets are not permitted. Students following particular dietary restrictions may be placed with other such students if they request it and if space is available, but separate kitchens are not provided. Student rooms and apartments are furnished unless you provide advance notice that furniture is not required. You may choose to bring your own bed and accept the other furniture. Note that in Rubin Hall first floor rooms, beds are built-in and cannot be removed. Furniture and other property management responsibilities are overseen by the Real Estate Division.

Accommodations for student couples (married or documented domestic partnerships) are usually not available for incoming students, but we urge you to communicate with the Housing Office as soon as you are offered admission to the School.

For those students who are not accommodated within NYUMC housing, we urge you to use our off-campus housing website, OCHAP:

The website includes a registration link to NYU’s preferred real estate broker CitiHabitats, and to buildings that rent directly to tenants without requiring a broker. CitiHabitats will discount their commissions for NYU affiliates.
