I am a US resident currently trying to decide between a few LLM programs. I have been admitted to George Washington's IP LLM program and have been admitted to Georgetown who accepted my catered General Studies LLM proposal focusing on IP. I am still waiting a response from NYU.
I know that George Washington is know for its IP focus (ranked #3 for IP), but will the Georgetown overall brand name carry more weight with firms overall? I've heard many firms aren't concerned with LLM rankings and tend to give credit to LLM programs based on their JD rankings.
Any advice as to what is the best option here would be greatly appreciated as I am having a hard time making a decision. Thanks!
