Hi every one ,
I came to the U.S. for participating in a conference in DC with B2 visa about a month ago , now I decided to stay here and study LLM , I got my LLB and I'm doing my master in international law , I do need your help that if I want to stay only in DC or at least VA ( its cities near to DC ) , and by a budget limited to 40000$ per tuition , what universities I can consider ? And what types of Llm program are better for finding a job after graduation ? Is there a possibility for finding a job after graduation with a LLM ? I do not have time since changing visa takes 3 month ... Have you heard anything about Howard university ? Thanks a lot every one I 'm totally mixed up and I do not know what should I do ..
Tnx a lot I'm waiting for answer

Without scholarship dollars, almost no programs will be under your budget amount. Your best chance for a very good school will be University of Texas (Austin).

As for getting a job after graduation, your chances are virtually nill regardless of what school you go to. I don't know the exact stats but based on my research, maybe about 3-5% find a job and almost all of those people came from the schools in the top 10 of all law schools.

Based on your geographical area, your best bet for finding a job is going to Georgetown. Unfortunately without financial aid it will be over your budget amount.

Good luck!

I will second Wavshrdr here -- with the oversupply of US-trained JDs, employment prospects for LLM graduates are slim to nil, even for graduates from the top law schools.
