Hi everyone!

I am interested in the Master in International Commercial Arbitration in Sweden and was wondering how much the program costs in US dollars? Also are there any special recommendations that one needs to apply? I have already graduated from law school in the states and will be sitting for the bar exam so I can be licensed to practice in the states. I think all you need is a degree from a law school. If someone could get back to me. My email is: ewelinamroczka@yahoo.com

Thanks!

Stockholm is free but not the best. Have a look to the MIDS program of Geneva.

As I wrote in another discussion I don't agree. I would say that the Stockholm programme is way better than the Geneva one for a number of reasons:

(i) it is 8-year old, while the MIDS is new and, as such, a question mark;

(ii) it focuses on "international commercial arbitration", while with MIDS you are forced to study remotely-related subjects like International Trade or stuff like that;

(iii) the seriousness of the ICAL derives also from the fact that it is not customizable; you want to learn arbitration? This is it, everyone will get the same level of preparation;

(iv) the professors at Stockholm are exclusively dedicated to commercial arbitration while at MIDS you have about 30 speakers and you don't really know who your reference is;

(v) the Stockholm Chamber of Commerce administers more international commercial arbitration cases than Geneva;

(vi) it will allow you to work part-time during the second semester;

(vii) it will save you about 17,000 EURO!

(viii) it is MUCH more selective, also as a result of (i) and (vii) above;

And so on.

Hi,

I'm an American J.D. student currently on exchange in Copenhagen. My focus is ICA and I would like to apply for the LLM in Stockholm for 2010-2011 (this site has been great for helping me figure out where to apply).

I would like to know how any of you are finding the program. I will take a trip up by year's end to see Stockholm, but am eager to hear some feedback on the curriculum if you have a moment.

Thanks in advance!
Brian
