LLM in FALL 2021 - Is it worth it?


Dslaw

Hello everyone!


I'd like to hear your opinions on pursuing an LLM in the current situation with COVID 19.

I don't think any law school has lowered its tuition fees during the pandemic. Therefore, paying $50K up to $80K for online courses is not worth it, in my opinion.


Although my main reason for pursuing an LLM is for professional purposes, I also want to have a social life, go to class, go to the library, all of it on campus ...


What about you guys?

Do you think we can ask them to lower their tuition fees if it's only online courses??? 

By the way, current students at Columbia University have complained about having to pay full tuition fees during the pandemic and are currently doing TUITION STRIKE and asking Columbia to reduce their tuition fees.
