The locations were soon evacuated, according to the university. Police conducted a search and later issued an all clear, reports Xinhua news agency.
"The police have completed their investigation of the bomb threat that NYU received earlier this evening, having searched four NYU buildings and Hebrew Union College; they have issued an 'all clear'," NYU Spokesman John Beckman said in a statement.
