Summary

New York University is a major private research institution in New York State. In fiscal year 2026, NYU filed 49 H-1B petitions, all of which were certified.

Since 2010, NYU has filed 2,116 H-1B applications with an 86.63% certification rate, 3.69% withdrawn, and 1.32% denied. The employer's H-1B activity has centered on academic and scientific roles: Biological Science Teachers, Postsecondary (460 filings) lead its petition volume, followed by Medical Scientists, Except Epidemiologists (343 filings), Health Specialties Teachers, Postsecondary (162 filings), and other life science and teaching positions. This role mix reflects NYU's profile as a research university with extensive graduate programs and postdoctoral hiring.

NYU's filings peaked at 228 in 2019 before declining sharply during the COVID-era disruptions (13 filings in 2020), then recovered gradually through 2025 (199 filings). The recent recovery and consistently high certification rate demonstrate sustained H-1B sponsorship for international faculty and researchers.
