The Gallatin School of Individualized Study (generally known simply as Gallatin) is a highly selective small college within New York University. Founded in 1972 as the University Without Walls, the school is named after Albert Gallatin, Secretary of the Treasury under Thomas Jefferson, and a founding father of NYU. Gallatin believed that the place for a university was not in the seclusion of cloistered halls but in the throbbing heart of a great city. It was in this spirit that Gallatin was founded. Herbert London was the school's first dean through 1992. Gallatin aims to provide a small college feel, while leveraging its location within one of the largest private universities in the United States. Students are expected to design their own interdisciplinary program that meets their specific interests and career goals. Coursework can be undertaken at any of the schools that comprise NYU. Gallatin currently enrolls 1200 undergraduates and 200 graduate students.
