There are over one million international students in the United States and around fourth thousands of those students are receiving their graduate and undergraduate education in law studies related majors. High quality standards of graduate level law studies (LLM, JD, SJD, PhD in Law, MS in Comparative Law, etc.) attract people to get their graduate level education with domestic students. Such an educational experience in graduate level law studies from a US based university pays those students back as salary increase and as prestige in their home countries. Studying law in the US also make eligible foreign lawyers to take bar exams in some states and accordingly practice law in specific jurisdiction. 

Application procedures for the law schools in the US (e.g., documentations, choosing the right schools, time management, scholarship and assistantship applications, etc.) however are complicated and require solid knowledge and in many cases professional consulting. This course is designed to guide people who wish to apply to graduate level law programs (LLM, JD, SJD, PhD in Law, MS in Comparative Law, etc.) at Law Schools in the US. 

Students via this course will deeply learn all steps of application procedures as well as required exams and scores, selecting the schools and programs, preparing for the interviews and composing an effective personal statement. Furthermore, students will learn about the best graduate level law programs, universities as well as the overall higher education system in the US. Students will be able to complete graduate level law program applications by themselves from A to Z.
