I am too, but I am still trying to figure out how. I am keeping my fingers crossed anyway. Even a DFW will make a huge difference.Tue Mar 24, 2009 06:50 PM Do you know if we are going to receive an e-mail or we should wait for an actual letter of admission? I cant wait to have the info from them, not only from the system! |

A DFW would be a bless indeed. Letīs hope for the best. On the other hand, Iīm checking my finances, possible loans, etc., etc, etc.Tue Mar 24, 2009 07:02 PM I believe there is nothing we can do now but wait for the official letter. It wonīt be long, Iīm sure. Hope to see you in Montreal this fall! |

Tks for the good thoughts! I hope so, but I believe they take into consideration many factors to grant the scholarships, and the TOEFL is only a small part of the application. Have you taken the TOEFL yet?

Well, they probably receive a lot of applications and it takes time to review them... Sat Apr 11, 2009 05:15 PM > marjant: are you from Canada or another country? good luck to you too! :-) |

I am recommended as well - for the thesis - LL.M. in comparative law. I wish they would hurry up and give me the official "you're accepted" status though. Fri May 22, 2009 08:17 PM Anybody know anything about merits of thesis vs. non-thesis. I chose thesis, because I hope to produce something publication-worthy. I've had second thoughts because I've been thinking one gets more guided classroom education in the same time frame and for the same cost with the non-thesis option. Thoughts anyone? - BNR |

Hi BNR,Fri May 22, 2009 10:37 PM First of all, congrats! From my perspective, the thesis option is more academic and research orientated. I also believe that the time frame is different between the two programmes. According to the information provided on their website, a non-thesis LL.M normally takes 1 year whereas the average time for a thesis option ranges from 1,5 to 2 years. This, of course, may rise the cost of a thesis LL.M a little bit (have to pay for additional sessions, living expenses, etc.). Anyway, Iīm just making theoretical assumptions here. Donīt know how it works in practice. Best, |

It finally says "admitted" on Minerva. That's quite a bit better than "recommended by department." Tue May 26, 2009 04:57 AM Congrats to all others who have also been admitted. - BNR |
