Graduates talk about their experiences at Virginia Law.
“UVA Law met every expectation I could have had in my pursuit of an LL.M. degree. Apart from being a top-tier law school in the U.S., UVA provided a springboard for the development of my professional, academic and social skills.”
“Almost each week there were events, conferences, debates and speakers addressing legal, political and social issues. One remarkable moment was to attend the interview of retired U.S. Supreme Court Justice Anthony Kennedy.”
“The LL.M. program at the University of Virginia School of Law is small and selective. Students in the program can enroll in any class offered in the J.D. program, including first-year courses.”
“I was able to get to know both LL.M. and J.D. students from all over the world and create strong friendships with them throughout the year. I will always cherish these close friendships.”
“All of the school-sponsored lunches and dinners provide a different room for professors and students to interact, exchange thoughts and learn from each other. Combined with the allocation of office hours, the amount of dedication that UVA Law professors show for the students is top-notch.”
“I had a wonderful journey in the UVA LL.M. program. Students have access to learn from the top business law scholars and successful lawyers.”
“The John W. Glynn Jr. Law & Business Program was a delightful surprise for me as a transactional lawyer. Under this program, many corporate law-related courses are designed to integrate business and legal analysis into the law school classroom.”
“There were many reasons for me to come to UVA, among others: its academic excellence; its flexibility to design a high-quality, multi-disciplinary program; and the fact that UVA seeks to create a true community.”
“I am positive that being a LL.M. student at UVA Law had a major influence in securing a foreign associate position in a tier-1 global law firm during the Optical Practical Training.”
“The small classes allow for a lot of discussion about legal questions in the broader societal context.”
