contents We study the low lying zeros of $GL(2) \times GL(2)$ Rankin-Selberg $L$-functions. Assuming the generalized Riemann hypothesis, we compute the $1$-level density of the low-lying zeroes of $L(s, f \otimes g)$ averaged over families of Rankin-Selberg convolutions, where $f, g$ are cuspidal newforms with even weights $k_1, k_2$ and prime levels $N_1, N_2$, respectively. The Katz-Sarnak density conjecture predicts that in the limit, the $1$-level density of suitable families of $L$-functions is the same as the distribution of eigenvalues of corresponding families of random matrices. The 1-level density relies on a smooth test function $ϕ$ whose Fourier transform $\widehatϕ$ has compact support. In general, we show the Katz-Sarnak density conjecture holds for test functions $ϕ$ with $\operatorname{supp} \widehatϕ\subset (-\frac{1}{2}, \frac{1}{2})$. When $N_1 = N_2$, we prove the density conjecture for $\operatorname{supp} \widehatϕ\subset (-\frac{5}{4}, \frac{5}{4})$ when $k_1 \ne k_2$, and $\operatorname{supp} \widehatϕ\subset (-\frac{29}{28}, \frac{29}{28})$ when $k_1 = k_2$. A lower order term emerges when the support of $\widehatϕ$ exceeds $(-1, 1)$, which makes these results particularly interesting. The main idea which allows us to extend the support of $\widehatϕ$ beyond $(-1, 1)$ is an analysis of the products of Kloosterman sums arising from the Petersson formula. We also carefully treat the contributions from poles in the case where $k_1 = k_2$. Our work provides conditional lower bounds for the proportion of Rankin-Selberg $L$-functions which are non-vanishing at the central point and for a related conjecture of Keating and Snaith on central $L$-values.
