Korean student in Chinese Law School; Am I good enough for LLM programs in States?


bobos7477

Hello~ I'm Ben from Korea who's currently studying at Fudan University, School of Law.
I used to study in CA but I somehow got into Chinese University.
Long story short, I wasn't able to keep my GPA up, due to multiple circumstances (If you want to know, I'm totally fine with telling you guys :D )
I got 2.1/4.0 GPA,,, with this devastating grades, Is there any possibility of me getting accepted in any LLM program in NY?

Have you published? Having published in journals etc., or having solid work experience otherwise, can help correct for low GPAs.

I think it's a hard sell for many of the top programs, but other stronger aspects of your profile could go a long way. The schools will basically see a low GPA as a red flag and be looking for some other indication that you could get by in a stressful graduate-level course.
