For over 60 years, NYU's Graduate Tax Program has produced the best and the brightest tax practitioners, academics and government leaders, nationally and internationally. The NYU Graduate Tax Program is widely viewed as the preeminent program of its kind. It has been ranked #1 by U.S. News & World Report since 1992, the year the rankings began.
Our tax faculty takes pride in learning from and with our students. We are fortunate that our location in New York City gives us access to the nation’s leading tax practitioners, many of whom teach evening courses. We also offer an Executive LL.M. in Taxation program that allows practitioners around the world to access our course offerings online.
We look forward to welcoming you into the NYU School of Law Graduate Tax Program community and advancing our stellar history even further.
