Hi All,
I am wondering if anyone has got excepted to a US LLM program with a 2:2 European law degree. I unfortunately didn't do a well as I hoped to during my law degree due to personal and family circumstances. I have, however, gained good experience through various internships. I would like to do an LLM in the US but would appreciate advice on what schools may accept a 2:2 degree and also would appreciate any advice on how to finance a US LLM.
Thanks!

I have a 2:2 LLB from UK as well. I have so far applied to 5 US schools for LLM and got an acceptance from one (Boston U) with around 25% scholarship. Waiting for the response from other law schools before taking any decision. I think work experience might have some big role to play (i have almost 8 yrs of work experience) and so does having good scores in other non-law related degrees. I would say explore US law schools and see which best fits you and just apply.
