Together, GWNY and Field Placement provide students with an unparalleled opportunity to live in NYC and be fully immersed in business law.

The externships allow students to gain valuable business law-related work experience and add amazing connections to their professional networks.

In addition to taking corporate law courses taught by reputable partners at some of the nation's preeminent law firms, students participate concurrently in an externship through the law school's Field Placement Program. GW Law is the only school that offers deep exposure to both New York and Washington, D.C. GWNY is an intensive program that provides students with a domestic off-campus educational opportunity in New York City. Ultimately, the Field Placement Program and GW in New York (GWNY) determined my decision to attend GW Law. Before law school, I worked on Capitol Hill for a House Financial Services Committee member, where I developed interests at the intersection of business, law, and public policy. Initially, I was drawn to the caliber of professors, namely former GW Law professor, Lisa Fairfax, who President Obama nominated to serve as an SEC Commissioner, and my longtime councilwoman Mary Cheh.
