<p>I was interested in perusing a master in Harvard, which will be a dream come true, </p>
<p>I read about their Master in law, and I want to know does it require a undergrad in law, or it could be in business,</p>
<p>and what are my chances of getting in Harvard for a master degree as an international student with a high GPA, leadership skills and high performance abilities. </p>
<p>You need a first law degree (a J.D. in the US) before you can apply to an LL.M. program.</p>
<p>A LL.M. is a postgraduate degree. An American law students would first get an undergraduate degree in any subject and then a graduate degree in law (J.D.). If they wanted to get a more specialized knowledge of one particular field of law after finishing their J.D., they can enroll in an LL.M. program.</p>
<p>yes we do have LLB here, but not in my town, so that will be hard</p>
<p>Ok what if I want to apply for a master in business at Harvard, you think I have a chance?, what should I work on to increase my chances? Hopefully Ill get my undergrad with a gpa above 3.6.</p>
<p>Is if im working at a B.S degree in business</p>
<p>what sectors rather than business can I do my masters in, because most of what I read in Harvard grad schools, require a certain undergrad education, </p>
<p>Harvard is my first choice, what program will accept B.S in business</p>
<p>Just before someone gets angry the reason B@r!um said that is probably for the same thing I was thinking. You first asked about Law at Harvard but didn't have an undergrad for Law and then you want to do business there. Do you just want to go to Harvard or did you simply think to go into the of the highest ranking Law schools you could just have good grades in your under grad program. As well if you are doing Business look at more schools than just Harvard, it's a difficult school to get into.
As well you say what program will accept a B.S. in business, if we are talking about graduate programs than any MBA program which is what you should be looking for. Before you apply people often suggest/require you to know specifically what you want to go into or at least a more specific area than just marketing or business. This is because a Masters is a higher specialization and you should expect to get a wide array of information, but much more in depth and usually more concentrated in specific areas.
So I guess what is your obsession with Harvard, is it that you have always heard of it and seen it in movies? Usually someone who runs a great business or is of some political power went there or to a school of the same caliber?
Any who best of luck to you.</p>
<p>He just wants any masters degree from harvard because its harvard. i think its clear. i'm sure he could shell out 70k for a worthless M.Ed from there or extension studies.</p>
<p>its the fact that I have 3 more years to think, and many choices to do, its not that I fancy the name Harvard, its the fact that I want the best education I can get. Thanks for your help, im in decision making time, so I have a lot of time to think about Bus or Law.</p>
<p>Anyways, you would have a much better chance at Harvard if you actually know what you want to pursue... especially for graduate school. The better route would be, IMO, to first get some work experience to find out what you want to do with your life... and then apply to the right graduate school for you (IF necessary).</p>
<p>I personally think that going to graduate school without any real goals is a waste of money.</p>
