The academic program at NYU in London is defined by a commitment to excellence, outstanding faculty, and a broad-based liberal arts curriculum. London is an international hub for culture, the arts and finance, and the coursework planned for the Fall in London Freshman Program reflects just that. Courses will cover areas such as writing composition, economics and the foundations of western culture. The NYU in London academic center is located in the heart of Bloomsbury, the neighborhood from which the early-20th-century literary group that included E.M. Forster and Virginia Woolf took its name, and courses in composition and British Literature will draw on this local heritage.

Many of the professors at NYU in London come from the neighboring University of London, one of England’s premier institutions of higher learning. Students have the opportunity to meet one-on-one with professors who are readily accessible to students outside of class.

All courses of the Freshman curriculum carry four credit hours.  A normal course load is comprised of four 4-credit courses for a total of 16 credits.
