Sponsorship

sponsored by a home country government, United Nations, etc., must furnish an official letter of sponsorship that specifies the terms

of the award, amount of tuition paid, amount of living allowance, etc., as well as how tuition will be paid. All sponsorships are subject

to approval by the Office of the Bursar.

Timely submission–All affidavits must be current. It and all supporting documents must be received no later than six months from

their date of issuance.

Currency–The affidavit and supporting documents should clearly show U.S. dollar amounts and not amounts in foreign currencies (i.e.

yen, rupees, euros, etc.). These funds must be readily available to support your education. For example, real estate holdings and other

non-liquid assets DO NOT apply.

Checks–Note that all checks made payable to NYIT must be written on a U.S.-affiliated bank or appropriate financial institution.

Dependents–Students planning to bring a spouse and/or children must provide evidence of additional financial support: a minimum

of $5,000 for spouse and $4,500 for each additional dependent for the first year.

Notarization–All affidavits must be notarized (attested or certified). In the U.S., the affidavit of support must be sworn to or affirmed

before a notary public (available at most banks). In other countries, the affidavit should be taken to a U.S. Counselor Officer of the U.S.

Embassy. In other cases, bank officials or lawyers in the home country may be used for this purpose.
