The Wagner School and the NYU School of Law joint degree program allows students to simultaneously pursue degrees of Juris Doctor and Master of Public Administration or Master of Urban Planning on a full-time basis. Students enrolled in this program may complete the requirements for both degrees in four years.
Applicants are required to apply to each school individually, and must meet the respective admission standards for each program. Once admitted to both schools, a student will qualify for the joint degree program.
Students spend the first two years at the School of Law, and the remaining years are divided between the two Schools, with at least five semesters being completed at the school of Law.
