Hi

anyone applying for Fall 2008 LL.M in USA from India?

Hi,
I am from India and have already applied for LL.M to NYU (even NYU@NUS), Columbia, UPENN, Duke and Georgetown and am debating on applying to Chicago. What abt you ?

Any idea that when do the admission decissions of the above law schools are communicated ? Where all have u applied ? Do u work ex and where did u do ur LLB from ( phewww....too many qs asked !!!!)

Cheers.

Am applying to few courses in US , still finalising upon few unis.

I got partial funding from SMU and CWRU. Admitted into AU, CARDOZO and UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA without any funding.

waiting for decisions from Yale, Harvard, Cornell and University of Virginia

Looks like you applied pretty early. I am still sending out my applications. And congrats for your offers and partial funding as well.

Any idea when the early review decisions for NYU, Columbia Law School, UPENN, Duke and Georgetown will be made for LL.M class 2008.

Naah! Am clueless, didnt apply for early review.

Thanks sds.

Vanderbilt University Law School is another good school, but comparatively lesser discussed in India, having a provision for financial assistance for international students. Applications are still being accepted.

Hi sds

What are your plans? Have you finally selected the schools you will be applying ?

Yeah almost, decided upon Upenn, Columbia, NYU, Kings, UCL and few more. I am just hoping I get through any of these, competition seems to be pretty tuff for these big names. How about you? Any work-ex?

Thanks. I will finally decide based upon ranking of the school and/or the financial assitance available. The latest in the series I have applied is Vanderbilt. The highest ranked admission so far is from Washington Univ St Louis.

Thats great. You got good options in hand already, thats quite something. For me its all tensed up till I actually get in somewhere. Just keeping my fingers crossed.

HEY

i am an Indian little bit confused whether to apply for US or UK . can u suggest me in this regard . which country is best for job opportunities

Hi CARTY

In my opinion USA seems to be a better option. Secondly, a decision may for some people also depend upon availability of scholarships, for which USA provides more opportunities.

Could anyone advise me on a Joint Degree program in LL.M and Economics?

I have recently noticed a joint degree program - Law and Ph.D in Economics at Vanderbilt University. You need to check up if it is JD & Ph.D in Economics OR LL.M and Ph. D in Economics.

thanks. I find the program at Vanderbilt intersting.

hi nriattorney,
are u offered with any financial aid/scholarship from WU st louis?

Hello. I took to tour of Vanderbilt and the law school when I was in Nashville last September. For those of your considering Vanderbilt for an LL.M, I can say the campus is beautiful and that the law school has excellent facilities. For the JD, I think Vanderbilt is now ranked 16 or 17 in the entire US. Nashville is a vibrant city, and cost of living is very reasonable compared to New York or LA.
