We asked students at the Law School a series of questions about what it’s really like to live and study at NYU. Here’s how they answered:

What has been your favorite experience in New York?

Buying grounds passes to attend the U.S. Open over Labor Day weekend for the past two years.

It’s a tie: Spending Saturday afternoons throwing a football around in Central Park, and going out at night all around the city.

I work as an intern to the Palauan Mission to the United Nations. The day I got my U.N. badge I walked right past the crowds waiting for tours and entered through the delegates’ entrance. That was a pretty good one—particularly since it was raining, and I didn’t have to wait around outside.

The museums, the art galleries, the restaurants, the jazz clubs.

Helping 11th-grade students at the International High School in the Bronx get prepared for college applications, testing, and financial aid. It’s not in my curriculum; I just wanted to help teenagers who are willing to pursue college.

Living in Brooklyn is worth the commute. I love my beautiful and quiet neighborhood, and it’s a nice break from campus to go home to my own place. Plus, my roommate and I have a bigger and nicer place than we could ever afford in Manhattan!

Toward the end of my 1L year, I had to give an oral argument before a judge on the Second Circuit Court of Appeals for a Lawyering exercise. Standing at the podium, in a courthouse that’s just one level below the U.S. Supreme Court, was amazing.
