Hi,

I was just wondering how people - more specifically, students finishing up their first law degree - generally go about funding LL.M.

I'm coming from Canada where tuition is like, $2,000 a year!

I haven't received any scholarships yet and was just wondering what people have done in the past because I'm starting to stress a bit!

Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.

As for myself, for the next year (I'm almost in the same situation than you), I will fund it with a bank loan.

As simple as that ! ;)

may I know what type if loan you are getting? Loan only for students or personal loan? Doesnt it require you have a job in order to be eligible? How do you plan to repay it? I am thinking of getting a bank loan instead of relying on family but the uncertainty of any job offer after the LLM pretty much makes it quite sound quite risky....
