Hi. I am a new student at NYU, and wondering if they offer free braces as some other schools do.
Please let me know.
Thanks a lot,
 
Most dental procedures are covered for free, but anything requiring lab processing (i.e. crowns, bridges, veneers, and braces) are charged at cost.

Then, how much? Do they offer a sort of student discount?

So, he/she is telling you that the cost is the cost of the lab work, labor being free. Lab work costs will depend on the lab, procedure and perhaps something unique to a case.
 
yes you have to pay, but you pay the student rate which is substantially discounted. Couple of kids in my class got braces while in school, expect to cough up at least a thousand... unless you just need invisalign, then if you get it done by a undergrad I think it's $500.

I've heard that they look for a high GPA these days.
