Hi, I am applying for this LLM and I'm wondering what is the "common" profile for successful applicants. Is law firm experience the bare minimum? I have already a few years' experience, but not in a law firm.

thanks!

You can get a sense of what the school is looking for by browsing through the program's current candidates:

https://law.stanford.edu/directory/?tax_and_terms=1070

From the smattering of profiles I looked at, most have extensive experience, and some have advanced degrees, like previous LLMs and even PhDs.

In which phase candidates create a profile?

Hello, just wondering if anyone else applied for this program? I believe from previous posts that there has been a phone interview in late Feb for (at least some of) those who are shortlisted. Still a while to go until then, but has anyone heard anything yet?

PS noble2014: I am not sure when the successful candidates create a profile, but presumably after they arrive in Stanford to begin their studies.

Hi guys, i applied for the International Eco LLM ? Anyone on the same boat ?

Depends on the school but generally a call is a good thing. Every call (phone, Skype, etc.) I received all resulted in acceptance letters. Of course there were schools that never called me that accepted me as well.

Hi, would you mind sharing what the call was about? I did not apply for this year, as I am still completing a professional committment. It would however be useful to hear what the call is about, i.e. your CV and motivation or is it also a way for the University to know to what extent you are already familiar with the issues dealt with in the course? thanks!

Hi, I got a call from Stanford yesterday. Wasn't sure if it was routine so was checking this forum. The call lasted for about 10 minutes. I was asked questions based on what I wrote in my personal statement and what I had in my resume.

I was told that the caller would take notes and that these notes would help the committee take a decision. So, I guess this is a positive step? Or do they call everyone who has applied?

I've applied for the Environmental Law and Policy LLM.

Yes. When did you do a phone interview?

I just received an email.
I've been admitted to the ELP program.

Congrats!
