Housing for Entering Students
Congratulations on your Admission to NYU Law!
We hope that you will join our academic and residential community to experience the unique advantages NYU School of Law and Greenwich Village provide.
NYU School of Law student housing offers a variety of smoke free living arrangements within its two high-rise apartment-style residence halls and two low-rise apartment buildings. Most student residents live in private bedrooms within shared two-or three-bedroom apartments. Family housing accommodations (in the form of studios and one-bedroom apartments) are available but limited in quantity. Our low-rise buildings, 230 Sullivan Street and 130 MacDougal Street, allow us to offer economical studio and one-bedroom apartment options. Please see the specific building descriptions on our Web site for full details of all our facilities, including apartment layouts and furnishings.

The Department of Residence Services offers the ProGram, a series of social, cultural and educational programs designed to introduce residents the many wonders of NYU and NYC. The Faculty in Residence program gives residents the chance to enjoy lively, informal discussions on key legal issues with full-time faculty and visiting Hauser Global Law faculty. The monthly Residence Services newsletter, The HousinGram, provides students with timely administrative information and announcements.
The Department of Residence Services, comprised of the Office of Residential Life and the Office of Facilities Services, works to provide an environment that supports your studies at the Law School through well-maintained facilities, community-enhancing activities and policies and procedures that are comprehensive, easily understood and equitable. The Law School’s residential facilities possess an atmosphere where learning is fostered, diversity is embraced, and mutual respect for all members of the community is cultivated.
