I am considering applying for the international law LLM program offered by the washington college of law. On the university website it states that the llm in international legal studies, is ranked in the top ten. Does anyone know what the top ten llm international law programs are? That information would be useful to me when making a decision.

Thanks.

Take a look at: http://grad-schools.usnews.rankingsandreviews.com/usnews/edu/grad/rankings/law/brief/lawsp06_brief.php

Only the top 4 schools are accessible for free though

Perhaps you should try actually taking 5 minutes and doing a google search? The information is easily accessible on the internet.

Thanks all, i found out on the same day that i started this thread that indeed, Washington College of Law is ranked 5th for its program according to the US News and World report. I am certainly going to apply.

I did a search for the word ranking right here on this very board and found a thread discussing 2007 USNews rankings.

It contains the information you are looking for.

I have already seen these rankings when they were posted last year (I was actually asking for the 2008 rankings). Thanks anyway.

Hey Estar, I have exactly the same idea as you. I saw that University and i´m really interedted on International Law Program. I´m from Argentina and i would like to keep in touch with you in order to exchange our emails addresses ok ?

Of course, that ranking is only for US law schools and would look radically different it were widened somewhat to include some European and other countries!

AU WCL is indeed is one of the very good law schools more partiuclarly for their human rights program and active involvement in several internationl events;

Last summer I had an opportunity to interact with the Law dean and the faculty while attending a talk delivered by the Chief Prosecutor of International Criminal Court concerning prosecution of some of the top govt functionaries in Sudan.

The school keeps organising an effective interaction with top-notch personalities of the world which can benefit the students.
