I received a letter of acceptance from NYU's International Taxation Program on Feb. 29th. The letter was dated Feb. 28th.

Dear FSUkid,

Thank you for your reply. It is highly appreciated. I will keep you updated either way. I am hoping that it will be good news though.

I havent heard anything yet but i did apply v.close to the deadline....does the fact that i cant access the admitted students site mean that im rejected??or that they simply havent reached a decision yet?...has anyone who's received the package been previously unable to access the webpage?...!


Hi Pixie, I saw I was admitted to NYU General LL.M on Sat 1st, up until then it said something like "error not valid". I haven't got the ups letter yet though. I applied right before the deadline too, so dont worry yet! Good luck.

Of the people admitted so far, are any of you Americans? (outside of the Tax and and NYU@NUS) Or is everyone international students?

Thanks.

To those admitted without using the LSAC:

Are your transcripts attached to your application under the attachment section of your application?

Is there anyone who got admitted to the International Legal Studies program?

Many thanks.

In the "Fall 2008 information for admitted students" provided in the package it is said that "students may request a change of program by writing to the Director of Graduate Admissions". You have to explain the reasons, but if your request is rejected, then you're still admitted to the original program.

It is. What programs are you admitted to? I am yet to decide between Penn, CLS and NYU.
I am also considering to change from the General LLm to Corporations. Please advise.

Amicus- No I dont see my transcripts attached. I strongly believe it was only used for the admission procedure for NUS students to exchange info between the NYU staff over the Atlantic!
I know its tough but be patient. Good luck!

Can anyone tell us how many LLM students is NYU enrolling this year?
It seems to be a huge number. On the contrary, schools like Michigan has a small class of only 40! I am having difficulties in choosing among them. So there is a question as to the attention each students received and the real teaching quality. You dont want to be thrown into a mass LLMs factory, do u?

I received the offer letter from NYU today. The admit card does'nt state anything about scholarship. Does that mean that my application for scholarship is unsuccessful?

I also received the offer letter from NYU yesterday! However, I haven't received any email from them in regard of my admission. I think they just send the letter offer through UPS and do not send previous email. Is this correct?
I am in at Michigan, Chicago, and NYU. My priority is Chicago, but NYU is teasing me... A tough decision to take.

Hello everybody!
The weirdest thing just happened to me. Just out of curiousity I got into the admitted students page and used my application id to sign in and .... it said congratulations on your admission....!!!!!!!!!!!!
However, I wanted to ask those who have recieved the admission letter through the regualr mail(as u can imagine haven't got mine yet):
1. Did it give u a deadline by which to respond?
2. If u were awarded financial aid, does it say so on the online letter?
Thanx!
Good luck to those who r still waiting, and Congratulations to those who got in!!!

This is for all the Domestic Applicants (non-tax):

I spoke with NYU admissions the other day and I was told that they wouldn't send out admission decisions until June!

What a load of garbage on NYU's part. I think less and less of the school every day that goes by.

Hello! I just managed to get my NYU NetID set up, so will set up the group tonight when I get home. It will be on the NYU network, so you'll need your NYU email address to join. I'm getting very excited! Hope to see you guys in the fall.
