About the New York University Tartan

Your unique tartan pattern was created using our proprietary algorithm, which combines the year NYU was founded - 1831 - with the geographic coordinates of its campus - 40.729° N, 73.997° W. 

The individual thread counts reveal your unique time and place in history using NYU's official colors - Violet and Black.
