Admission & Application Survey |
| JD Program |
NYU is certainly a hard school to get into -- and has gotten more
competitive since I started. Two friends and I were teaching
assistants for a first year class and we joked (sort of) that the new
batch of students were way smarter than us. Like all top law schools,
I think NYU is looking for high LSAT scores and good grades. Taking
some time off in between undergrad and law school doesn't hurt. If you
get on the waitlist, be persistent, send letters, make phone calls.
Some of my friends who got in off the waitlist turned out to be some of
the best students. Like most law schools, there is no formal interview
process, but you can make an appointment to speak with someone in
admissions, and if NYU is your top choice, it couldn't hurt to show
your face and express just how interested you are. An additional piece
of info -- everyone I know at NYU also got into Columbia.
