Dears,

i have an LLM from an accredited law school and i am planing to apply to JD.

CLS told me that i have to apply as a transfer student since i have spent a full time year in an accredited law school. i thought that transfer students are those who have already spent a year in a jd program, but it seems that some law schools consider LLM graduates as transfer student and some other LSs do not.

now, i am alittle bit confused as i dont now whether applying as a transfer student is of any advantage or not. i need to know how transfer students applications are evaluated, any background?

thanks in advance.
