By the way, LSP students can transfer up to 32 AP/ college credits into the NYU school they eventually will graduate from, though you still have to take the core courses during the two LSP years:

Arts & Science;

Here is some feedback on LSP by a current LSP student with the person’s first year schedule of classes:

"Anonymous asked:
honestly, is the work in LSP easier or harder than in CAS? how much homework time do you have per night? and do you think you could post your schedule? it would help a lot. thanks!

Apparently it’s easier. It’s basically just different. We have a lot more reading, which I guess equates to being easier. My homework load varies depending on what we’re doing in my classes but usually I have a couple short essays/chapters to read for Writing, less than 100 pages (usually) in Cultural, a reading in Social (pages vary a lot), and nothing really in Life Science except read over notes/write up a lab. And, because classes meet every other day, you have the rest of the day and the next to do it, so it’s not as bad. Plus, there’s the weekend.

And absolutely, here’s my schedule

Monday
12:30p-1:45p— Writing II
2:00p-3:15p— Cultural Foundations II
3:30p-4:45p— Life Science

Tuesday
12:30p-1:45p— Social Foundations II

Wednesday
12:30p-1:45p— Writing II
2:00p-3:15p— Cultural Foundations II
3:30p-4:45p— Life Science

Thursday
12:30p-1:45p— Social Foundations II

Friday
12:30p-1:45p— Life Science Lab

I really don’t know how I ended up with all 12:30 starts this semester but I did.

And this was my last semester’s schedule if it helps:

Monday
11:00a-12:15p— Writing I
12:30p-1:45p— History of the Universe
4:55p-6:05p— History of the Universe Lab

Tuesday
11:00a-12:15p— Cultural Foundations I
2:00p-3:15p— Social Foundations I

Wednesday
11:00a-12:15p— Writing I
12:30p-1:45p— History of the Universe

Thursday
11:00a-12:15p— Cultural Foundations I
2:00p-3:15p— Social Foundations I"
