I have e-mailed with several of the alumni and the administration. The alumni speaks very fondly of the program. Especially the great contact between professors and students. The program admits maximum 20 students. It is a little but cheaper than most of those higher ranked program and was voted "best law school for your money" by the National Jurist in 2004. Also NC is a pretty cheap state to live in. Alumni seems to be very pleased with the classes offered, you attend classes with the JD's, most pass the NY bar afterwards (if they try) and some get jobs (that however depends on the effort you put in and numerous other factors). It is however ranked 36, so that probably should be taken into account.

I will be at Wake this fall!

What do you think about this LL.M.? Smb knows it?

Hi
My name is Avantika Banerji.I am a young lawyer from India.I have applied to various Law schools in the US for my LLM,for fall of 2007.Wake forest is one of the schools I had applied to.
I have got an acceptance letter from them,in that letter they have said that the Commitment date deadline is January 31, 2007. I am not able to understand what that means.Does it mean that I have to convey my final decision of accepting admission by this date?
Which if correct is a big problem,since I have not heard as yet from the other schools I had applied to.I will probably be hearing from them in February/March/April.
Can you please tell me what this 'Commitment date deadline' is?
If I do send the letter of committment,exactly what implications will it have? Is it binding? and Can I back out and accept admission in any other school at a later date?
Please help me out. I dont know what to do.
