<p>Thank you for your response cafe mom. YES the U.S. standards are different. And Yes I am a postgraduate. Got that. My confusion came from reading the website it’s self which was vague regarding “mature” students. Older students here in the U.S., (God bless America) are given a lot more leeway as far as returning to college as an older student. The reasoning top law schools give is that life is life. Things change such as having a family and career. Older students also have exceptional life experience. I believe I read the same on the Cambridge website but wanted clarification of this. AGAIN the website info is limited. I am interested in attending Cambridge for the experience, I have studied in Europe however never in the UK so I am not aware of their procedure. </p>
<p>I am aware a L.L.M is NOT a Juris Doctorate it is it’s equivalent.
At most top universities older students are just NOT looked at the same way which makes perfect sense. Younger post graduates therefore as treated differently regarding admissions. And Cafemom, clearly if I was practicing Law I would not be interested in attending Cambridge Law School for graduate school. </p>
<p>You couldn’t have responded in a snarkier, patronistic and rude manner. I don’t know what your issue IS but do your self a favor and quell your sarcasm please it was not asked for or needed. Clearly I was asking for a assistance not insults. </p>
<p>Just for future reference, watch your tone I can’t believe you mentor anyone. I bid you ado!</p>
<p>Please anyone who is currently or was a STUDENT with REAL experience as an older American student attending Cambridge Law School please reply. I need help finding out how Cambridge law school handles older students what assistance they have specifically for older students on campus ie. program coordinator etc. </p>
<p>Thanks guys!</p>
