Fellowship Award-Cornell


Scholar

Hi all,

What is this "fellowship award" in the Cornell application form? I tried to find it out in their web page, but could not. What is the difference between financial aid and merit fellowship?

Many thanks in advance

I think that the merit is for extraordinary applicants and the financial aid is of course on a financial need basis.

Isradv, first of all, thank you for your answer.

In other universities when you request a fellowship you are obliged to follow a certain path. Take CLS's Appel Fellowship for example, should you be selected for this fellowship you need to focus your research on regulatory or policy issues emerging from the trans-boundary operations of multinational or transnational enterprises.

I could not see any in Cornell's webpage, are you aware whether Cornell's fellowship imposes any such obligations on anyone receiving the fellowship?

Thanks

Dear Scholar
I don't know what you are talking about. I don't see this phrase in the application form. The Cornell law School need not any separate form for scholarship at the time of application. it is said in their site that :
"LL.M applicants wishing to be considered for financial aid should indicate their interest on their admissions application. Applicants are eligible for merit fellowships only. Recipients will be selected during the admissions process and need not complete any supplemental materials."
(http://www.lawschool.cornell.edu/admissions/tuition/international_students.cfm)
So in the application form you must only indicate that you want a full or partial financial Aid.(no.14 in application form). that's all. I think after they consider your application, they will inform you for more forms.
I suggest you to ask them for more information. I would be grateful if you would write here your new information.

Dear Alex,

You are correct in the sense that Cornell web page states "LL.M applicants wishing to be considered for financial aid should indicate their interest on their admissions application. Applicants are eligible for merit fellowships only."

However, in the application document there appears that there are two types of financial aid/scholarships. One of them is regular financial aid. Whether we need it, is asked with the question: "Please indicate the extent of financial support you must receive from Cornell Law School to enroll in the LL.M./J.S.D. Program: "

Then there is the second question, which is "Do you wish to be considered for a fellowship award from Cornell Law School?"

Now this makes me understand there are two different types of financial aids, one being the regular financial aid, and the other being the fellowship award.

I would appreciate your thoughts on this.

Regards,
S.

hi friend
I can't find this question in the Cornell law School application form: "Do you wish to be considered for a fellowship award from Cornell Law School?"
I would be grateful if you tell me the number of that b/coz in the tenth question they ask about non-Cornell support.

Hi Alex,

I am submitting an online application. In the online application there is a part named "application details".

In that section you have this question.

This is the order of the questions:
"Please indicate the extent of financial support you must receive from Cornell Law School to enroll in the LL.M./J.S.D. Program:

Do you wish to be considered for a fellowship award from Cornell Law School?

Please list any sources (including personal or family) of non-Cornell financial support available to you,
or which you have received or expect to receive for the coming academic year (e.g., government, employer, personal.) "

Regards,
S.
