I got an e-mail from them on the 8th, saying i'd been waitlisted. They didn't mention which specialisation. They said they'll let me know by the 22nd.

Hey

I received an email from NUS saying that they're still waiting for my IELTS score. I was planning to take the test later sometime in July. They want to "hear from me" latest by 24th April.

Does anyone know how to ask for a waiver from IELTs? Or is there anything else that I can do?

Thanks!

@ayush - you could have applied for a waiver with your application itself. I got a waiver too.

Hey Tanu

Thanks for the reply! I'll try applying for a waiver now. How did you go about applying for a waiver?

It was just a plain application mentioning that I have completed my complete education (schooling & university both) in English.

Also, does anyone know if we can reject the offer later once I've sent them the confirmation mail?

Hey, does anyone know if it is possible to change streams in the LLM? I have been offered my first preference, but I want to change it, is it possible?

It has been mentioned in the offer letter itself that you can change your stream later on also after a semester. Please read your offer letter properly. I m quoting the following from my offer letter :
"You have been given a place in our LL.M. Corporate & Financial Services Law, but you may change
that in the second semester of your studies if you complete all requirements necessary for a different
specialization."

Hello!

Can any of the current/past NUS students give us some ideas about the job/internship prospects after the LLM?

I know this question has probably been beaten to death.. but it's just that.. it would be good to know what is the current scenario out there.

Can a 2-3 years experienced candidate hope for some opportunities? And do the Law school people provide any assistance in this regard?

Would be of great help to us admitted candidates of 2014-15 to decide upon the course :-)

Thanks!
