Hi, I have been accepted to both the NYU traditional LLM program and the Upenn LLM program. I work in financial law and I was wondering for this field which of the two universities is a better choice.
Thank you for any information you can provide.
Upenn or NYU?

I think the UPENN LLM PROGRAM will be better for you, taking in consideration you are interested in financial law, maybe you can figure out if they let you take some classes in their Business School, which is highly ranked worldwide.

I´ve also been accepted in both Upenn and NYU (traditional LLM), but I am interested in Criminal Law. Do you know which one is better option for me?

For Criminal Law, Go to NYU of course.

I would pick Penn for both corporate and criminal. Their corporate law professors are constantly ranked among the most highly cited profs, and in criminal law they have such big names as Robinson, Bibas.
Plus the other advantage of Penn is that its LLM program is small and much better integrated with the rest of the law school. Of course, NYU has location and might be more generous.
