Hi Friends
I like to apply for a LLM program in the U.S,
but my question is , is that possible to be admitted for some one like me that already finished a PhD in Criminal law and criminology in home country?
I should add I d like to start a LLM program in human rights or international legal studies.

Best;

Having already a Phd can only be beneficial to you, especially if you want to apply to law schools interested in those pursuing an academic career (as Yale for instance). So don't worry, your Phd will only help you!

It depends. What's your score? Typically, you should score at least 100 overall, and at least 25 in each section.
