JD-LLM human rights@NORTHWESTERN???? VS. JD GTOWN Forum

[eiluj39]

Hey all, I am very torn between nu and gtown and would sincerely appreciate your inputs. Also would appreciate any insight into the JD-LLM Human rights at NU.


facts:

- Accepted to JD-LLM International Human Rights Joint Degree program at Northwestern (in retrospect, I should have thought more about what the joint degree program will mean to me when applying. I'm confused now as to if I really want to study human rights ) Anyone familiar with the joint degree program? what are the pros and cons?

- Accepted to JD Georgetown

- I'm interested in international law, which makes Gtown's location attractive, but I've seen polls on TLS that says NU is preferable to Gtown in many aspects.

- I may pursue a career in the government (gtown) or private law firms (nu)

Can you back out of the joint degree and still go to NU?

NU but loose the LLM degree.
