Dear Jennifer,

Hope everything goes well with you in Williamsburg. My name is Ben Xing and I am a 09Fall W&M LLM graduate.

Given the fact that many friends in this forum are quite interested in W&M, could you explain that in your opinion, specifically for INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS, what are the top 3 advantages and disadvantages of W&M compared to other law schools ranking lower than T14 (such as...University of Washington...haha)?

As for those LLM students who wish to find a job/internship in the States (such as NY, DC or VA), what is your suggestion? What can W&M offer to them?

Many thanks for your kindly help. I am so proud of being part of W&M.

GO TRIBE!

Hello Jennifer,

My question is quite a general one. As one of the candidates, I am curious about in what sequence will you Admission Office review our materials (i.e. TOEFL, GPA, PS, CV etc.)?  And，which one or two material（s）is/are more important for your decision?

Many thanks.

Dear Jenifer,

I am so glad that GTER made it to invite you to answer interested applicants' questions.

I am an admitted applicant for your LL.M. Program of 2014 Fall. It's highly appreciated if you could kindly answer my questions below.

1. Could you please give some suggestions on how to prepare to get accustomed to the rigorous demands of law school for international students who are not planning to take the Legal Advantage Program?

2. How to be selected to tansfer into the J.D. Program from the LL.M. Program? Will there be any scholorships available to the qulified students?

3. Is it allowed to take some courses during the summer session after the month of May (the end of the Spring semester) if I am really interested in some courses but not have time to take during the prior fall and spring semesters? OR is it possible to extend my graduation to July or August? I am asking this question because the length of time of studying in the U.S. is important for me to live in Beijing after coming back from the U.S. according to the complex residence policies of Beijing.

Thanks in advance for your kind reply and  look forward to the incoming enjoyable experience in W&M.

Dear Jennifer,

Many thanks to your effort and patience to answer the questions of the us, it is really considerate.

I am an applicant to your 2014 LLM Program, and my questions are as follows,

1. Since there is almost three months left for the enrolled students this year, what kind of prep work should we do before going to the law school? Do you have anything particular (i.e. like publications and websites) for recommendation?

2. If I want to pursue further studies as a JD student in other law schools after graduation, is it contradictory in time to sit for the BAR and be well prepared to take the LSAT ?

3. Are there detailed information about the ratio of graduates who successfully found jobs/internships in the U.S., or in their home country these years?


Thanks for your time.

Dear Jennifer

Good morning~I am an admitted student of 14 Fall and I have decided to attend W&M Law School.

According to many students who are attending law school now or have graduated from law school, it is not an easy thing to finish the heavy reading requirements, especially at the very beginning of the first semester. Do you have some suggestions on how to improve our reading ability and how to quickly adapt to the new teaching method?

In addition, I noticed that you have a lot of clinical programs, do LL.M. students have the opportunity to attend these programs?

Lastly, I’d like to give thanks to all the graduate admission officers who helped me through email. Thank you for your time and patient. I look forward to seeing you this July in Williamsburg.

Hello Jennifer!

I'll join your LL.M. program this year. Thanks for answering our questions!

I notice that the 2015 NYBar admission requires at least 50 hours of pro bono service, so I really concern with the opportunity to perform the service. Will  the school help us LL.M. students to contact with related organizations?

Thank you very much! : D
