No. Please do! And while you do so, I’ll tell some 600 foreign LLM students at Columbia and NYU that they cannot sit for the NY Bar. Haha, they were even invited and sat in on our bar information sessions. The joke’s on them!!!

@Hecatonchires

Among other requirements, a foreign-educated lawyer wishing to sit for the NY Bar must “provide satisfactory proof of the following: <a href=“2”>…</a> that the applicant has successfully completed a period of law study in a law school or schools, that is at least substantially equivalent in duration to that required under subdivisions (d) and (e) of section 520.3”.

@NYU Website

A candidate for the degree of Master of Laws (LL.M.), Executive Master of Laws (E-LL.M.) or Doctor of Juridical Science (J.S.D.) within the Graduate Division at New York University School of Law must hold the first degree in law (J.D. or LL.B.) from a law school that is approved by the Section of Legal Education of the American Bar Association or a bachelor of laws degree from a non-U.S. law school approved by its foreign equivalent.</p>

<p>I hope your professors at NYU don’t care that you have difficulty reading. To help make it clear for you:</p>

<p>(1) Foreign-educated lawyers must have completed a JD-equivalent program
(2) Foreign NYU and Columbia LLM students have completed such a program since that is a prerequisite for admission.
(3) Your “point” about NYU and Columbia LLM students is misguided.</p>

<p>elorica, the NYU and Georgetown tax LLMs are good. NYU is just the best tax LLM in the country, with Georgetown coming in second. If you want a plain LLM, there are other (better) options.</p>
