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.

The University of Southern California (USC) and Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) also received bomb threats on Thursday, causing evacuations.
Law enforcement agencies determined the evacuated buildings are safe and "normal business has resumed", USC said on Twitter.
The Cambridge Police Department, after investigating the MIT bomb threats, said that "at this time, no evidence has been found to substantiate the threats" in a tweet.
