Here are our best recommendations:

  • Ask an adult who can actually see the item. It's very hard to make a judgement call based on a written description.
  • If you're not sure, don't bring it
  • If you decide to bring it to see if it works, bring something else as a back up.
  • NYLF will not comment on any pictures of items. You can ask for the opinions of others attending, or alumni, and we recommend that you do! But please do not call the Admissions Office asking opinion of the staff.

    Thank you.
    ________________________________

    NYLF/MED has enjoyed an excellent reputation as a result of the high standard of professionalism our students exemplify. To ensure that this standard is maintained, all students are expected to exercise professional discretion and sound judgement in personal appearance and habits, and maintain a professional image at the Forum. We anticipate that during the Forum there will be:
    a) six times when you must be dressed in professional attire;

    b) three to four times when you may be dressed in relaxed professional attire;

    c) one time when you must wear semi-formal or professional attire for the closing dinner dance;

    d) and numerous times for casual dress.

    We recommend you check the weather in your city before packing and please be aware that almost all facilities are air-conditioned.

    Professional Attire for Men:

                       

  • Dress shirts and ties with suits or with slacks and a sport coat
  • At least one pair of comfortable, rubber-soled dress shoes
  • A sweater or vest over shirt and tie, but a sport coat or suit jacket is still required
  • NO jeans, sandals, Birkenstocks, athletic shoes or flip-flops

    [For a complete list of professional attire "Don'ts," click here.]

    Relaxed Professional Attire for Men:

  • Casual shirts with collars, golf shirts, sweaters and turtle/mock necks (ties are not necessary but may be worn)
  • Casual slacks (e.g. khakis)
  • Footwear such as loafers or deck shoes
  • NO Birkenstocks, athletic shoes or flip-flops
  • NO cargo pants

    Casual Attire for Women:

  • Jeans, shorts, T-shirts and halter/tank tops but must be neat in appearance. Clothes should reflect dress appropriate for most high schools, including dress/skirt/shorts length. Footwear may include Birkenstocks, athletic shoes and flip-flops.
