Yes
No
enrollment/Registration Are there any mandatory courses?
Yes
No
Students selected for participation in the exchange program will receive information
from Julie Sculli on how to access the online Teaching Schedule and WebAdvisor (the
registration system) prior to arrival. Students may select their courses and register
online before arriving, or students may wait to register once they have arrived at
Brooklyn Law School and have had the chance to meet with Julie. The sooner they
register the better as courses do fill up. There is no guarantee that an exchange
student will be enrolled in any particular course as BLS graduating students have
priority. Students coming to BLS on exchange should be flexible and have many backup options.
Credit System
Which credit system does your institution use? How long is one class hour (i.e. 45 or 60 min)?
We use the ABA credit system which requires one credit hour to be 700 minutes of
instruction. Class meeting times vary.
Transfer of Credits
Does your institution offer students the option to transfer their credits onto a future LL.M
Program at your university?
Yes
No
The requirements are that they apply and are accepted to our LL.M. program no more than
one year after completing their exchange semester. Up to 12 credits can be transferred from
their exchange year. They must still complete our two required LL.M. courses which are
offered in the Fall semester (so the semester they must complete upon return is the Fall). If
they wish to sit for the NYS bar, they must return the following Fall and spend the entire year
at BLS, though they will receive a one semester tuition discount.

General Information
New York University School of Law is the preeminent global law school featuring innovative
teaching, research, and intellectual and professional development in a uniquely collegial
environment. Like our great city, NYU School of Law is a "melting pot" of legal scholars and
practitioners, economists, social scientists, and representatives of the innovation industries.
The essence of the Law School experience is the close interaction between our faculty and
students. Creating and nurturing a stimulating intellectual environment is central to the
educational philosophy of the Law School, and these characteristics hold high appeal for both
students and faculty. NYU School of Law offers more than 200 rich and diverse courses and
programs on issues that permeate all aspects of law in the 21st century. This extensive
curriculum broadens perspectives and opens new ways of seeing and understanding, not only the
law, but the world around us.
NYU Law creates a vibrant community through our rigorous academic programs, including
business, constitutional, criminal, environmental, innovation, interdisciplinary, international,
procedure, public interest and tax law, as well as innovative programs, such as our renowned
clinics and our groundbreaking lawyering program. For more information, please visit:

Located in Greenwich Village, New York City, NYU School of Law is a vibrant part of this
metropolis. Members of the Law School community enjoy an inexhaustible array of cultural

Official hard-copy transcripts, and English translations if the transcript is not in English, are
required from each university at which students have studied law and/or received a law degree.
The transcript must be provided directly to NYU School of Law from the law school registrar or
exchange program coordinator. Please be sure that any prior name that appears on the transcript
is indicated on the exchange student application.
Personal Statement
Students must submit a statement of not more than 250 words. Students may wish to describe
their professional interests and goals, as well as the merit of exchange studies. If available,

English Language Proficiency Test
Applicants whose academic legal training has not been in English, or whose legal training was
located in a country where English is not a primary language, must take either the TOEFL or the
IELTS English proficiency tests.
Applicants should request that the Educational Testing Service issue an official score report of
their results from the TOEFL iBT to NYU Law (institution code: 2599). For IELTS test-takers,
contact the test center directly and request that your test scores be sent to New York University
School of Law electronically. An institutional code is not required. NYU Law only accepts
scores submitted electronically, and all IELTS test centers worldwide are able to send scores
electronically to NYU. A photocopy of an official TOEFL or IELTS score report (an Examinee
Report is not acceptable) sent directly from the law school registrar or exchange program
coordinator will be accepted provided that the score has not expired and the photocopy is an
attested true copy by the registrar or the coordinator.
IMPORTANT: Students should plan to take the TOEFL or IELTS exam at least one to two
months prior to the application deadline. Students should indicate when applying for the TOEFL
exam or IELTS that they wish a copy of the exam results to be sent to New York University
School of Law. Please also note that for both language proficiency tests the scores have a
validity of 2 years.
TOEFL and IELTS Requirements:
Information regarding the TOEFL is available from www.toefl.org; applicants must register for
the internet-based TOEFL (iBT) only. Information regarding the IELTS is available at
www.ielts.org; applicants must register for the academic version only.

required for exchange students. For more information please visit:
http://www.law.nyu.edu/graduateaffairs/announcements/index.htm
5.
Course Enrollment / Registration
Exchange students will have the same opportunities as our LL.M. students when registering for
classes; demand for courses may exceed their availability so they cannot be guaranteed.
Instructions for registering will be sent along with the letter of admission.
Additional Course Requirements for Foreign Exchange Students
Exchange students whose legal training is not based upon the common law are strongly
recommended to enroll in "Introduction to U.S. Law" which is held during the week prior to the
beginning of the fall semester. This course is designed to introduce foreign-trained lawyers to
American Law, the American legal system, and American legal education. Students participating
in the exchange program in the spring semester (January to May), do not have to enroll in any
introductory course.

Credit System
Prospective international exchange students who are selected to participate in a one-semester
exchange will be expected to take a full course load (12 credits) as a non-matriculant exchange
student .
Students must register for a minimum of 10 credits to satisfy their U.S. students visa
requirement, NYU Law full load is 12 credits.
Students can register for 10 credits if they obtain permission from their home university.
Students must request their coordinators to email [email protected] to
inform of their permission and request NYU School of Law to register the student for 10 credits.
7.
Visa Information
International students who are not U.S. Citizens need a visa to study in the United States. The
Office of Global Services will assist students with any questions regarding requirements for
student visas. Upon admission, students are provided with a Certificate of Eligibility (I-20 or DS2019) and an official letter of acceptance.
8.
Immunization/ Health issues
New York State Public Health Laws 2165 and 2167 require that all students (graduate,
undergraduate, transfer, and returning students) taking six or more credits in a degree-granting
program must:
(a) provide proof of immunity to measles, mumps and rubella and
(b) complete a meningitis response form.
Failure to meet New York State and NYU mandated immunization requirements will result in:
• Inability to move into residence halls
• De-enrollment of students not in compliance
De-enrollment means:
a) Students will be dropped from classes that they have been registered for, and students will no
longer be enrolled in or able to attend their classes.
b) Students will be excluded from entering campus buildings and the student ID card may also be
deactivated.
For more information regarding the New York State and NYU mandated immunization
requirements, please visit the Student Health Requirements website. If you have any questions
or concerns regarding the immunization requirements, please contact the Student Health Center
at [email protected].
9.
Health Insurance Requirements
Health insurance is required by the University and is a necessity in the U.S. because of the very
high cost of healthcare. When students are registered for classes, they will be charged
automatically for the NYU-sponsored Comprehensive Plan. Students will remain enrolled in that
program unless they maintain other insurance coverage that meets the University’s criteria and
21
Exchange Program Information
Academic Year 2014-2015
Page 5
complete the online enrollment/waiver process before the semester deadline to waive the NYUsponsored plans.
International students should consider that the NYU Student Health Center and most other
healthcare facilities in the United States will not bill insurance companies with international
addresses directly. Therefore, students covered under international plans will be required to pay
for treatment in full at the time medical services are rendered.
Students coming in the Fall semester who will be attending the “Introduction to the U.S. Law”
course will be assessed an extra Comprehensive Plan fee which will provide insurance coverage
for this period.
For more information, please visit: http://www.nyu.edu/shc/about/intl.students.html
10.
Housing
When students are admitted and confirmed, they will be able to apply for student housing. Please
note that NYU does not guarantee On-Campus Housing for exchange students and that obtaining
housing may in fact be unlikely depending on demand. Under our NYU School of Law policy,
priority is given to students needing housing for the full academic year. Unfortunately, this
means that students who need housing for one semester only will find out if they were assigned
NYU On-Campus housing rather late. For those reasons, we encourage students to apply to NYU
On-Campus Housing but also look for other options ahead of time.
Please note that the Department of Residence Services is responsible for assigning NYU OnCampus housing and any questions regarding housing should be addressed to that office at:
[email protected]. For more information about our housing please visit:
http://www.law.nyu.edu/housing/index.htm
NYU Law Office of Global Programs offers students to connect them with each other should
they wish to plan to look for shared off-campus housing together. Interested students should
contact the NYU Law Office of Global Programs by email at
[email protected]

Depends on the class
Registration, Courses and Grading:
Students can register for classes online through https://gibson.tulane.edu/ once they have been assigned a Tulane email address
username and password. Exchange students can take any course offered by the Law School, subject to the prerequisites for any given
course, with the exception of certain clinical and skills-related courses. Exchange students take classes with JD and LLM students.
Most quotas are waived for exchange students, although spring semester students should enroll prior to arrival to make sure that space
is still available. Tulane University offers exchange students the opportunity to transfer their credits towards a future LL.M. program
upon review of their particular case. Exams cannot be rescheduled so please pay attention to exam dates when registering or booking
any travel.
Foreign exchange students will be allowed to make an election upon their arrival whether they will be graded on the same grading
scale as foreign graduate students (E, VG, RM, NR) or on the normal U.S. grading scale (A-F). Students who do not make the election
in writing when asked to do so by the Office of Academic Services shall be graded on the U.S. grading scale. Students are encouraged to
discuss the grading scale election with their home school prior to making the election to avoid difficulties after grades are posted. We
recommend that exchange students choose the foreign graduate grading scale.
Orientation Program Information:
Tulane holds an orientation program for LL.M. and international students for four weeks preceding the semester. It is strongly
recommended for our international students as it is an introduction to United States Law. For this reason, we recommend visiting in
the fall semester, rather than spring. Tulane University also offers a summer Intensive Language course in the month prior to the
orientation program that is available to international students for a fee ($1050). The introductory courses give students the
opportunity to adjust to life in New Orleans, get settled, and meet other international students before the start of the semester.
Estimated Living Expenses and Adequate Funding:
The 2013 – 2014 estimate for living expenses reflects a student budget of $2,392 per month for room (rent, utilities), food,
miscellaneous expenses (such as parking, optional study aids), books and supplies, and all transportation. The student's Statement of
Adequate Funding in the application should therefore indicate minimum funds of $10,764 for one semester or $21,528 for both
semesters. Health expenses ($1,325 per semester), i.e. medical insurance/ordinary health expenses (prescriptions), are included in the
estimated living expense budget.

Accommodations:
Temporary on-campus housing is available during the July orientation session. After the orientation is over, however, students must
find permanent off-campus housing on their own for the academic term. The Office of International Legal Programs is available to
answer questions regarding housing and offer advice to students looking for housing. To request temporary housing please fill-out
this form: http://www.law.tulane.edu/surveys/llms/index.aspx?ekfrm=16788
Unfortunately, due to the scarcity of on-campus housing, only off-campus housing is available, although there are options managed by
Tulane’s Housing Office, at either the Papillon Apartments, in the Lower Garden District, or at Deming Pavilion, downtown. Please
see the website: http://tulane.edu/studentaffairs/housing/grad/index.cfm for more information and to apply. You also have the
opportunity to search for off-campus apartments through http://tulane.ochgateway.com/, the Housing and Residence Life Office’s
web-based apartment finder.
If you opt not to live in Tulane housing, you should plan on setting up temporary accommodations for the first few nights as you look
for an apartment. Housing possibilities may also be researched by checking housing advertisements on the Law School intranet site
(log in information will be provided to students before arrival) and on student bulletin boards. The following housing resources can
also be used to acquire temporary housing accommodations, as helpful guides to apartments available in the area and an idea of price
ranges, and to set up appointments for when you arrive:

elect to pay a one-time visit fee instead of the entire fee. To use the SHC again during the 6 month period, students must pay the
remainder of the semester’s fee.
Students are required to carry adequate medical insurance. All J-1/J-2 visa holders must be covered by a Tulane University
Sponsored Health Policy, or they must obtain a waiver to this policy by showing that they have health insurance with coverage that is
equal to or better than the Tulane Health Plan for the full term of their program. The Student Health Center will provide information
on their website just prior to the semester regarding the student insurance policy. Tulane accepts foreign health insurance only if it
meets these minimum requirements and covers the students for their entire stay in the US.
Exchange students must also complete immunization forms from Tulane University Student Health Services prior to enrollment in
classes. Students should plan to have these immunization forms completed prior to arrival in the US. Should you need to get
immunizations once you arrive, you can go to the Student Health Center by paying the cost of the vaccine.
