Cest vrai que c'est compliqué pour certaines, mais ce nest pas la majorité.
UCLA / Berkeley : "English Language Requirement Waiver Requests - You may request an English Language Requirement Waiver if either of the following criteria apply:
1) you have attended a US university for full-time study for a minimum of one academic year with a 3.0/B average or higher, OR
2) you have earned a degree from a foreign university in which the sole language of instruction is English.
To request a waiver, check the "Yes" button for Question 1 under English Requirement. You must submit official academic records through LSAC to verify your eligibility. »
Chicago :
"The TOEFL and IELTS will not be necessary if the applicant studied law in full-time status for at least one academic year prior to the date of application, within five years of the date of application, in the United States, the United Kingdom, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, or English medium universities in Canada or South Africa. Students who have studied in English in other countries, for example, India, Pakistan, the Philippines, Hong Kong, Singapore, African countries, etc., are not exempt from this requirement and must provide either TOEFL or IELTS scores with their applications - this requirement will be waived if all the candidate's university law courses were conducted entirely in English. »
NYU : Applicants whose first law degree program was not taught in English, but who have completed an advanced degree taught in English in a country where English is the primary language are not required to take the TOEFL or the IELTS. These applicants must submit an official transcript to LSAC showing the advanced graded academic coursework and the conferral of the degree. Applicants who are currently enrolled in such an advanced degree program, but who have not been conferred the degree, must submit an official TOEFL or IELTS score.
Cest vrai certaines (Columbia et Yale) sont plus sévères et nacceptent que "those who earned their first law degree entirely in English in an English-speaking country must take the TOEFL iBT or the paper-based TOEFL and the Test of Written English (TWE) by our admission deadline (December 17, 2013)."
Stanford demande au moins deux ans : ''Applicants may request a waiver of the TOEFL if they have studied previously in an English-speaking academic institution or have used English extensively in their professional work. Waivers may be granted to those applicants who have studied or worked in English full time for two years or more.'
Ainsi quHarvard "Applicants with at least two consecutive years of full-time university education conducted entirely in English may request a waiver of the TOEFL exam; however, such waivers are not automatic, and are granted at the sole discretion of the Graduate Program. »
Il me semble quà part Columbia, Harvard, Yale et Stanford, les waivers sont possibles dans des conditions raisonnables. Un an détudes en anglais.
Mais à vrai dire, je pense que le mieux si on parle déjà très bien langlais cest passer le TOEFL, disons que cest plus simple si on veut aller à Columbia, Stanford etc... ! Même si cest pénible !
Si comme toi on a déjà vécu aux US plusieurs années ça ne devrait pas être insurmontable. Ça lest plus pour moi qui nai jamais vécu dans un pays anglophone et ai appris langlais toute seule :(
Dailleurs, au final tu as réussi ton waiver dans toutes les universités ou a été obligée de passer le TOEFL ?
