Student body with diverse interest (not just corporate law)

Ideal location for graduate school

Great corporate and art law instructors

Lack of cohesiveness to student body

Less name recognition / prestige than similarly ranked schools

Consider the pros/cons of being in the middle of a large city

Yes

The atmosphere was not overly competitive, and the professors were top notch.

Although located in the heart of Greenwich Village may be appealing to some, the lack of a real college campus was a negative for me.

If you are intending to work in New York City, there is no better school to attend. Employers basically beat down your door to interview you.

Yes

Great culture and professors. Less competitive culture and more about learning.

I think that there should be a great emphasis on certain requirements such as corporations.

There is great career services and all you have to do is decently to get into top law firms. A great choice for anybody.

Yes

The very collegial atmosphere of the school. Students are not cut throat and more than willing to help each other out or share outlines.

Although all the professors are brilliant, some don't make the best teachers.

Great T-10 school with laid back back classmates. Also excellent place to study international law and take classes with LLMs from all over the world.

Yes

Intelligent and friendly students, Location of the University, Quality of Professors

Sometimes the excitement of the nearby area can be distracting.

NYU is a great school, which I would recommend to anyone.

Yes

Challenging. A lot of transactional classes. Practical approach. Good career prospects. Many extra curricular opportunities.

Not much guidance on course selection and work load. Not enough career resources for international LLMs.

Don't make it harder than it already is. Take easier classes and a few in your field of interest. Don't take too many hard ones at the same time.

Yes

Virtually all of my professors were interested in the subject matter.

Lack of a campus. Yes, I know, the village is a wonderful campus. Still, it a college campus it is not.

Renowned for its placement office, or for the ability to land a job in a top law firm in New York city.

Yes

Fantastic faculty and an amazing education.

Extremely high caliber of students both as intellectual peers and as social peers. A Very collegial social environment.

Lawyering (Legal Reading and Writing Elsewhere) is ungraded--as it should be

Very good institutional support for helping students find jobs

Limited financial aid for those (a majority) who aren't going into public interest positions

Income-based repayment (including negative amortization if you leave) requirement for loan forgiveness under public interest

With respect to federal clerkships, NYU Law does well, but appears to punch a bit below its weight on sheer name prestige--the faculty are world-class, but the name recognition is catching up relatively gradually

NYU's reputation as a place of tremendous collegiality between students is richly deserved--people will hang out with each other after class and are always willing to help each other and form study groups. You will get to know and find your friends from among your 90-person section and the 30-person Lawyering section-within-a-section. The education is amazing--NYU has poured resources into poaching top faculty in recent years, and while the money charged for law school is (as everywhere) an enormous sum, at least it's being put to good use.

Yes

Location and professors are the top notch. There is great food and drink surround the school and its a nice place to be. The people are great here.

For exam on Exam4 you are locked out of your computer. You can only take 8 adjunct credits that count.

If you get into NYU Law you should definitely consider going. Firms love hiring NYU students.

Yes
