Multi-State Authorization

Requesting state approval for activities outside of New York State (NYS) is referred to as multi-state authorization. If you have a course or program with any activity or other triggering scenarios occurring outside of New York State, you will need to obtain multi-state authorization from that state. This website will provide guidance on the types of activities approved, and those that may require additional authorization. Every NYU school is unique and requires consultation with the OAPRA to confirm whether their activities require additional authorization.
