NW比较重视LSAT,好象UMICH更selective,可能也更好些吧~~

Suppose you got admissions from all of them, what would you do?

作者: zengerl    时间: 2007-4-9 23:21
more questions:
Due to some reason, the applications were submitted very late(like 3/1), so the guy did not apply for financial aid yet ( he did not expect any admission at all), is it too late to do     so? is it a better idea to postpone one year?


how  to tranfer status from H-1 to F-1?

is it worth it to postpone for one year to apply for NIW green card through POSDOC position? Do law firms sponsor green card? How difficult is it to get it?

Without knowing much of your particular situation, of course Michigan is the best of the three. If you need to stay in DC or Chicago, then Georgetown or NU would make sense. Don't defer law school just for the sake of GC which who knows it is gonna take how long to get. Congrats!

llm is a differnt game. if you are going for llm on an F-1 visa, please choose a big city. Michigan may not be the best for you.

for JD, go for the best ranked school. This is a no-brainer. Michigan

First, congratulations!!!!

Second. I am thinking of the same thing. In my opinion, I think you should just file it. It won't hurt. You can wait for 485 while you are in law school. (That's what I decided to do before law school.) But expert opinion needed on this one.

There will be more options with green card. Don't wait.

I vote for Georgetown. Location is good. Weather is much nicer than the other two.

How can you wait 485 while in law school, i though we have to change from H1 to F1 unless you are doing part-time, then we are no longer the employee of the original sponsor. I am in the same boat here. I am waiting for my 485, but looks like i have to wait three to four years, too much of sacrifice, so I decide to go to school this fall.

That's the right decision. If you already filed 485, you don't need to change from H1 to F1. You can attend school as visa pending. (I have a friend who went to medical school when her 485 was pending. She filed labor certificate.)  If you haven't filed 485 or are waiting to file 485, I think you need to change visa status from H1 to F1.

I am planning to submit the green card material before going to school.
