About

New York Law School (NYLS) is a private, American law school in the Tribeca neighborhood in Manhattan, New York City. The third oldest law school in New York City, it was founded in 1891 by Theodore Dwight, who had decades earlier founded Columbia Law School in 1858 when he became its original professor. Nationwide, NYLS is the 50th oldest among 197 American Bar Association-accredited law schools. NYLS is the only law school founded in New York City between the end of the U.S. Civil War and the 1898 consolidation of all five boroughs (Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, The Bronx, and Staten Island) into the City of Greater New York.
