Tandon Tokens Swag Closet

At the Office of Student Leadership and Engagement, we aim to support your professional growth and development throughout your journey at Tandon. To encourage you to get engaged with all the opportunities we have to offer here at Tandon, we have created the Tandon Tokens program. For every program or activity you complete from our continuously updated list of Tandon Tokens qualifying programs — all aligned with OSL&E's Core Values — you can submit a Tandon Tokens request form. You can then use your tokens to get NYU Tandon-branded merch, available exclusively to NYU Tandon students.

1. Attend or complete an activity from our ever-growing list of Tandon Tokens qualifying programs.
2. Complete our Tandon Tokens Request Form with the details and valid proof of activity completed. This form must be filled out with your NYU NetID email address.
3. Once submitted, you will hear back from OSL&E with approval/denial of your request within 3 - 4 business days.
4. Upon approval, you can pick up your Tandon Tokens from the Office of Student Leadership and Engagement (5 MetroTech Center, LC 221) on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays, 9 am - 5 pm.
5. Once you have collected enough Tandon Tokens to claim a swag item, come to the Tandon Tokens Closet located in 5 MetroTech Center, Room LC 223 every other month on the last Thursday to pick up your items.
