NYU Law was the first law school established in New York City. It is considered to be among the most selective and prestigious law schools in the United States. It is currently ranked 5th nationally by the U.S. News World Report. [ 1 ]

NYU Law offers several fellowships to students admitted to the LLM Program. The most selective is the Hauser Global Scholarship: eight to ten top LLM students are admitted from all over the world. The scholarship includes full tuition waiver and reasonable accommodation costs. In addition, it offers the Hugo Grotius as well as Vanderbilt scholarships for International law studies and other branches of law respectively.[1]

In 2005, NYU Law entered into an agreement with the Osgoode Hall Law School of York University. in Toronto. Canada. that will allow select students to obtain a joint-Bachelor of Laws (LL.B.) and JD, studying at both schools, in four years. The competitive program will begin in the fall of 2006 and will accommodate up to 20 students per year. Since then there has also been implemented a jointly granted NYU/Osgoode LLB/LLM program in which graduates are granted the LLB as well as an LLM from NYU in only 3 and a half years instead of the normally required four. More recently, the NYU School of Law has entered into similar dual degree agreements with the National University of Singapore Faculty of Law and the University of Melbourne Law School .
