So, who is going to Leiden this upcoming year (07' - 08') ?

And in what programme?

I'll be doing the LL.M. (Regular) in Public International Law. I've chatted with a few people from here who are also going, but it would be especially nice to meet even more people!

Hi kris, I'm thinking about applying to Leiden, too. But I will apply for LL.M. (International Tax). What about the admission procedure? complicated? and how long?

Cheers,
Ek V.

Hi Ek,

Don't worry, it is pretty straight-forward. It is all well explained on the application form (see particularly the check-list of requirements on the last page).

The programme in International Tax, however, is an LL.M. (Advanced) and not a regular LL.M.. As such, it has no "home fee" (if you happen to be an EU citizen) and is aimed primarily at professionals. In contrast, the regular LL.M. has a "home fee" and is aimed at those who have recently finished their Bachelor's degree.

In terms of time frame, it takes a few months for everything to be reviewed (at least in my case). If you plan on applying for 2007/08 school year, I would do it soon.

Thanks Kris,

I will send all my relevant documents within this week. Hopefully, I will get good news soon. Anyway, where's you from? I'm from Thailand but I got Master degree in Finance from US. and has been working in banking business for almost ten years.

Cheers,
Ek V.

I've plan to go to Leiden but for next year ('08-'09). And Lucky to you (Ek V.). Im from thailand either.

Hi people!
I would also like to apply for master in international law at Leiden University(08-09). But because my country is not in EU,tution fees are very high. I am from Bosnia and Herzegovina and in my country studies last 4 years (240 ECTS). I will next year finish my studies and I will apply,I dont have nothing to lose. I have friend from Serbia,who is at the moment at Leiden doing MAS,but it is so expensive,about 15 000 euros. Maybe I win next year lottery :-)
Good luck everyone from me...

Hi,

ive been accepted to Leiden LLM in Pub. International Law for the year 7/8. But ive been accepted to Vienna diplomatic academy also, so I dont know what to do :(

Dex - when you recieve your offer/acceptance and in what form did it arrive in? I have applied, but have had no word back from Leiden regarding admission beyond an email saying I would hear word within six weeks.
Thanks!

I think I will choose Leiden, since I've been accepted. See you guys next year. I am from Lithuania, by the way.
