Hello everyone,

It is now safe to assert that the places for NYU LLM has been filled. I initially submitted my application early September and only received a reply today. The response was a rejection. The letter reads as follows:

The committee on graduate admissions has carefully considered your application. I am sorry to inform you that the committee is unable to offer you admission to the graduate programme at the law school.

We hope you will understand that this decision is a reflection of the strenght of our applicant pool, rather than the result of a possible weakness in your application. We reeceive many more applications for admission than we can accommodate each year, and inevitably we must turn away many accomplished applicants simply for lack of space in our program.

Please accept our very best wishes for success in your future academic and professional plans. We genuinely appreciate your interest in NYU school of law.


I would say this is probably a standard letter and is probably issued to everyone upon rejection. Do not be disheartened at this post but pick yourself up and seek plan B.

Once again congrats to those who gained admissions and commeserations to those who didn't.

Has anyone either been accepted or rejected from the Trade Regulation LLM? NYU has been extremely slow...

I applied for the part time program on trade regulation and have not received any kind of response yet....

Has anyone either been accepted or rejected from the Trade Regulation LLM? NYU has been extremely slow...

When I last spoke to the NYU admissions office, they told me it could take until June.... Unreal.

Hi,

I phoned NYU and they said that a decision on my case was made last friday and that i wld receive it shortly....does everyone really think that all the places have been filled and that it will be a rejection?? also does anyone know how long it takes for them to send it? (i live in the uk)....cheers x

Best of lucks then!

hey, Bruce1. Yes I am one of the applicants who have already received the accpetance form NYU trade regulations. But am thinking of changing it on Corporate Law.

Congratulations!!! When did you receive the letter (if you don't mind me asking)?

Also, I've heard good things about the Corporate Law program. Are you allowed to switch from one LL.M program to another once you are accepted? How does that work? The reasona I'm asking is because I'm wondering if the admissions people look at all the LLM applications together, or whether you are judged in relation to other applicants who have applied to your specific LLM program?

Thanks so much for any info!

Sure! I`ve received it on March 14 by fedex. it was postmarked by march 6. I haven`t asked them about switching the program, but it is said on their website that we can change our program they will allow it if there are available sits. if you don`t get the allowance you are still remained on your original program. I have no exact info regarding their admission process, but I think that they do seperate applicants to the specific programs.
Are you from the states?

hi,

i was placed on NYU's waiting list and wanted to know if there are more applicants in my position. Further, do you know what are the chances to be addmitted from the waiting list?

thx in advance.

So.. they are already placing people on the wait list? Does this mean if you haven't heard anything you are either rejected or waitlisted?

Thanks!

I'm not sure what it means. I spoke to the NYU admissions staff the other day and they said they just submitted my application to the committee. So, they haven't even gotten to some applications yet. I've been amazed at how slow the admissions process has been...

For those of you keeping track --- I am a domestic applicant for the general studies program and just received my acceptance from NYU today via USPS. I actually found out first via e-mail about an online admitted students forum; the letter was in my mailbox when I got home. They have set a May 1st deadline for a seat deposit, so I imagine that another waive of acceptances will go out following that deadline. I am still waiting to hear from Columbia, but I am excited that I at least have a place to call home. See many of you next year (maybe).

Is there anybody amoung NYU admitted students who is going to obtain the Advanced Certificate in Law ans Business from Stern Business School this summer?

Hi All,

I received today my admission letter to the General Studies part time progam!! I'm from Mexico but have been working in NYC since 2006.

I look forward to see you all!

Warm Regards,
