Columbia vs. UCL
Mon Apr 28, 2008 12:43 PM
Dear all,

I got accepted into both Columbia and UCL, but my problem is that even with a tuition waiver from Columbia and a Fulbright scholarship, I will still need to spend a substantial amount to study at Columbia. On the other hand, I got into UCL with a Chevening scholarship, which will cover all costs. I'm planning to specialize in public international law, particularly international criminal law/ international humanitarian law/ human rights. I would like to eventually work at an international tribunal such as the ICC. I'd like to hear your thoughts on what decision I should make. Thanks!

I would advise that you should get a deferal from Columbia and complete LLM at UCL. Next year, you may join Columbia, if it is possible. With UCL LLM you may be able to seek teaching assistantship etc
