Once your application submission is 100 percent, you can log back into the application account to check the status of the application submitted and you can view decision letters.

Once a student is admitted to a degree program, he/she will receive an e-mail stating an update to the application has been made, and to log into the portal to check the application status. Students must either “accept” or “reject” the admission offer. If the student accepts the offer, he/she must electronically sign the offer. He/she will also be able to download the tuition breakdown. 

Note: Only the applicant to the program is authorized to “accept” or “reject” the admission offer. If a third party (agent) is found to have signed this document, they will be held accountable for this action.

Once students receive the Eligibility for Admission (EFA) letter, they are required to pay the initial tuition deposit so that they can receive their Letter of Acceptance (LOA). Tuition deposit must be paid within 21 days of receipt of EFA.

The tuition deposit amount and tuition breakdown are provided in the EFA.

All the initial tuition deposits must be paid through Flywire or TransferMate, the payment platforms New York Tech has partnered with to provide our international students with an easy, convenient, and secure method to send international payments in their home currency or by using an international credit card. See our payment methods page for further instructions.

Once you have submitted your deposit, please set up your username and password in the my.NYIT Portal. It may take 24-48 hours after you submit your deposit to be able to create an account.

Once you have set up your username and password, you will also have to enroll in Okta Single Sign-On (SSO). View instructions to set up your Okta account. This will enable you to create your New York Tech email account, which will be used for all official university notifications, and access the Student Service HUB — Your Home for University Business. You will need this portal activated to register for classes. Please contact vancouver.registrar@nyit.edu if you have any questions about your New York Tech student account.
