<p>If you are talking about pure merit aid–by that I mean you have no financial need according to your FAFSA–you would not be eligible for the “merit” aid the 2 posters above have described.</p>
<p>Merit aid without need is extremely rare at NYU–especially since Stern doesn’t give any school specific merit awards. </p>

<p>According to this, the MLK scholarship is the only merit scholarship you may be eligible for if you do not have need. But the wording here is vague, so I would double check on that.</p>
