Starting this fall, New York University's School of Law is admitting students to its newest program - the Executive L.L.M in Tax. Washington Square News reports:

"The new "Executive L.L.M. in Tax" will feature online videos of prerecorded lectures, often taught in conjunction with "live" sections of classes. All students will take the same exams and be graded on the same curves, Faculty Director and law professor Noël Cunningham said.

The law school will admit 25 online students this fall, he said."

NYU is now one of only a few reputable law schools offering graduate programs online. While there are many quality programs for other subjects, administrators have been hesitant to offer virtual law programs, particularly because face-to-face interaction and Socratic discussions are highly valued in law school academics.
