Overview

The New York University Law Review was founded in 1924 as a collaborative effort between law students and members of the local bar.[1] Between 1924 and 1950, it was variously known as the Annual Review of the Law School of New York University,[2] the New York University Law Quarterly Review,[3] and the New York University Law Review.[4] Since 1950, it has been known exclusively as the New York University Law Review.

The Law Review publishes six issues per year in April, May, June, October, November, and December.[5] Circulation is about 1,500.[6]. The journal publishes a wide range of scholarship by professors and judges, with a particular emphasis on legal theory,[7] administrative law,[8] environmental law,[9] legal history,[10] and international law.[11] In addition, the Law Review is known for its commitment to student scholarship. In 2006, it published twenty-six articles written by law students.

The Law Review ranks fourth in Washington & Lee Law School's overall law review rankings, following Harvard, Yale, and Columbia. With Yale, it ranks first in "impact factor," a measure of the average number of times each published article is cited. [12]

Selection

Each year, the Law Review selects 48 new members, from a class of approximately 440. Members are selected using a competitive process, which takes into account the applicant's first-year grades, performance in a writing competition, and potential to contribute to diversity on the journal.[13]
