Student Quotes
I choose to pursue the U.S. Law LLM at Scalia Law School because it is a great stepping stone in pursu-
ing a legal career in the U.S. It allows a foreign-educated attorney to qualify for the Bar examination
to become a practicing lawyer in the U.S. It was a phenomenal experience, allowing me to learn from
brilliant and experienced attorneys and academics. e law school is located outside of Washington,
D.C. where the major private practices and government entities are located. erefore, a majority of the
professors teaching at Scalia Law are either aliated with one of the major private practices or govern-
ment entities, giving students an insider perspective of the legal landscape.
e U.S. Law LLM oered by George Mason University’s Antonin Scalia Law School gave me an opportu-
nity to unite my personal and professional goals while preparing for a U.S. Bar exam. e school provides
a exible schedule for those who have full-time jobs or personal responsibilities. It oers great resources
that enable students to study every topic in every area of law. One learns how to research and nd the
answers to challenging questions and problems daily by the educators who have a passion for help-
ing students become leaders while achieving their professional goals. I highly recommend Scalia Law
School’s U.S. Law LLM to foreign-educated lawyers who want to learn about U.S. law and seek admission
for eligibility to sit for a bar examination.
