Hi all,
I am yet to hear from some schools I applied for. Do any of you know schools that do not respond to their applicants, i.e. no objection letters, no nothing at all?

Thanks!

I only applied to UB and have not heard a thing...not a solitary thing. I posted my application on December 16, 2006. Anyone heard anything from UB either positive or negative ? I really don't feel that "no knows is good news" in this instance.

UB is not the best choice for an LL.M. The school doesn't have a specific plan for the students. On top of that the CSO doesn't offer you any help in your job search. In addition, Buffalo is a small town where winter lasts for more than 6 months.

I just read the post about not receiving any correspondence from UB Law. This is upsetting to me because I review all of the applications and respond personally to each. Can you tell me to whom you posted your application and what address (e-mail or snail mail) you used? If there is a problem with our communication system, I'd liek to solve it as quickly as possible. I'm sorry we didn't get back to you.

I graduated from UB's LLM Criminal Law Program in 2002. It was a great program. I did not experience (in any way) the claimed lack of contact with UB's Administration. The school was great. Yes, Buffalo weather is a bit cold; however, it is a nice, cozy hometown atmosphere. Having an LLM in Criminal Law was of tremendous benefit to me. I was promoted to the position of an Assistant U.S. Attorney without having any trial experience. (There is an exception to DOJ's hiring process that affords LLM grads preferential treatment with regard to qualification.) I would do it all over again.
