3L here, putting off doing work. If anyone has any questions about life here, let me know. Not sure how much I'll remember about the admissions process, as it was a while ago, but I can attempt to answer those as well.

Seconded. This is the #1 reason I'm applying to NYU. Might write a Why X in memoir style about my first experience at artichoke pizza.

What is life like at NYU? Would you recommend NYU Law to others?

What is NYU's fee waiver policy? Have people successfully solicited waivers from them?

Did they give a certain date or just leave it up to you to decide when it's been later enough?

according to someone who attended NYU orientation:

"Didn't remember to write down the complete stats, but NYU was 171/169/16?(think it was 166), 3.8 median GPA and 432 class size. Essentially like no change from last year."

let's goooooo

Checking in!

Got WLed last cycle with a really late app. Hoping an early submission along with a Why NYU essay will be able to tip the tide in my favor this year.

Good luck everyone!

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
