LLM 입학허가 받은 후 해야 할 것 - 예치금 납부 및 재정서류 제출 등

이맘 때 즈음이면 대부분의 LLM지원자들은 지원 한 학교로부터 입학 허가를 받고, 비자 신청을 위해 필요한 서류인 공식 입학허가서 (Form I-20 A/B) 신청을 위해 2차 서류 작업을 진행 할 것입니다.

대개 입학허가레터 혹은 이메일을 받게 되면, 학교에서 지정한 기일 내에 Seat Security Deposit 혹은 Tuition Deposit 을 납부 하라고 통보 합니다. 만일, 이 기한 내에 예치금 납부가 안 될 경우, 입학 의사가 없는 것으로 간주하고 다른 지원자에게 입학 허가 기회를 주게 되는 것입니다. 그러니, 이 점 꼭 유의 하시어 가야 할 학교로부터 입학이 취소되는 불상사를 겪지 않기를 바랍니다.

그리고, 위 Deposit 지불 이외에도 대부분의 학교는 비자 신청 시 필수로 제출 해야 하는 공식 입학허가서 (Form I-20 A/B) 발급을 위해 재정서류를 제출 할 것을 요구 합니다. 재정 서류의 경우, 개인 신청자일 경우, 학교 수업료 및 생활비를 커버 할 수 있는 정도의 재정보증인 영문은행잔고증명서와 영문재정보증서를 작성 하고, 필요한 경우 학교의 재정 양식도 작성 해 보내야 합니다. 하지만, 정부 및 기관으로부터 재정 보증을 받는 경우에는 정부 및 기관의 레터헤드지에 재정보증서 (Affidavit of Financial Support)를 발급 받아 제출 하시면 됩니다.  뿐만 아니라, 자녀 혹은 배우자 등 유학 동반 비자가 필요한 경우, 동반 하실 분의 여권 사본도 함께 준비 하시어 보내 셔야 합니다.

이러한 Follow-up과 관련 궁금한 점 있으시면 저희 에듀브릿지 유학컨설팅에 언제든 문의 바랍니다. 저희 에듀브릿지 유학컨설팅은 입학허가를 받고 비자를 준비 하시는 분들께 유료 비자 수속 서비스를 제공 하고 있습니다.

Dear Mr. Kim,

Congratulations! On behalf of UCLA School of Law, it is our pleasure to inform you of your admission to our LL.M. Program for the 2015-2016 academic year. Your application demonstrates that you have the exceptional intellectual ability, motivation, and character necessary to be an outstanding and dedicated member of our diverse, close-knit law school community.

UCLA School of Law has a reputation for excellence throughout the world. Those who join us can look forward to an exhilarating year and a promising professional future. At UCLA, you will take our outstanding courses alongside some of America’s best and brightest law students.

If you have not previously studied American law, your studies will begin Wednesday, August 12, 2015 with an introductory course, American Law in a Global Context. Taught by Professor Patrick Goodman, who has received UCLA Law’s distinguished Professor of the Year award for five consecutive years, this course will expertly prepare you for life and work at a U.S. law school. Students who have already earned an American law degree will participate in a one-day orientation program on Friday, August 21. Regular classes will begin the following Monday, August 24. We will send you instructions on how to select your classes, and the enrollment process will occur online after the schedule of classes is finalized in early July.

As you may know, UCLA Law offers LL.M. students the opportunity to pursue specialized studies in a specific field of law. You may specialize in Entertainment, Media, and Intellectual Property Law; International and Comparative Law; or one of four business-related tracks: Business Law, Securities Regulation, Tax, and Bankruptcy. UCLA ranks among the top law schools in the nation in these fields, and the specializations will offer you a rich program of study. You may also opt not to specialize, or to develop your own specialization in a field of your choice. If you accept our offer of admission, you will receive instructions on how to declare and pursue a specialization during the course enrollment process in early July.

In addition to your studies, you will be invited to social events planned specifically for LL.M. students. Fun gatherings like networking mixers and our traditional Thanksgiving meal will give you the chance to meet friends and colleagues from more than 35 countries around the world. You will also be fully integrated into the wider UCLA Law community, taking classes, attending events, and having off-campus fun in Los Angeles with your J.D. colleagues.

You will also have access to exciting professional opportunities. UCLA is the creator and proud host of the West Coast International LL.M. Job Fair. This event brings together employers specifically interested in hiring LL.M. graduates. Like those at other top-tier schools, our students are invited to the annual NYU LL.M. job fair for international students. Our fair, however, focuses on the West Coast specifically, and is an important aspect of the LL.M. job market.

Tuition fees for the 2015-2016 LL.M. Program are expected to be $57,000. (This figure is an estimate and will be finalized in June 2015. It includes the cost of health insurance coverage.) Please note that the Graduate Studies Committee reaches its financial aid decisions separately from the admissions process. If the Committee has granted you a financial aid award, you will receive a separate email. U.S. citizens and/or permanent residents are also welcome to contact our Financial Aid Office for guidance on federal and private loan options.

In a few weeks, you will receive an official copy of this letter and an admission package via UPS Express Mail. Because our program is relatively small and individualized, it is important that we know whether you intend to register. We plan to enroll a class of only 150 students this year, although more than 1,300 qualified applicants will seek admission. Therefore, we kindly ask that you inform us of your decision no later than Friday, May 1, 2015 by visiting the following website: http://my.ucla.edu. The first time you access this site, you will be prompted to create a UCLA Logon and Password. Under the “Sign In” button, please click “Create UCLA Logon/Password.” You will be prompted to supply your University ID Number (404720201) and your date of birth to create your UCLA Logon.

Once you have created your Logon, to accept the offer of admission, please follow the instructions to submit your Statement of Intent to Register (SIR) and $500 seat deposit. This deposit will be credited toward your first tuition payment later this year. Please note that you are required to submit only one seat deposit. A second deposit is required only for new J.D. students. Once you submit your SIR and single $500 deposit, your place in the LL.M. Class of 2016 will be reserved.

An individual of your outstanding ability is likely to be accepted at multiple law schools, and you may have questions as you decide which school to attend. If we can help you make that decision, please contact us to discuss graduate study at law school in general or UCLA in particular. At your convenience, please feel free to email Ms. Tiffany Parnell, Graduate Studies Coordinator, at parnell@law.ucla.edu to inform her of your availability. Tiffany will be happy to phone you directly to discuss the program and answer any questions you may have. Please also let Tiffany know if you plan to visit Los Angeles, and we will be happy to meet with you and give you a tour of the law school.

As you may know, Los Angeles has one of the best climates in the world. It is a true pleasure to study on our lush, green campus under the warm California sun, gently cooled by our proximity to the Pacific Ocean. Why choose to study in a city that has months of cold and snow, when you could instead spend a year in gorgeous Southern California?

Los Angeles is also one of the great cultural centers of the world. Our arts, entertainment, and recreational offerings rival those of any city on Earth. You’ll hear languages spoken from around the globe, find the cuisine of virtually every nationality, and perhaps even spot a world-famous celebrity in Beverly Hills. Of course, we think you should come here for our excellent academic reputation, but it never hurts to have interesting stories to share on Skype with your family and friends back home!

Once again, congratulations and welcome to UCLA. We hope you will accept our offer, and we look forward to hearing from you.

Best regards,

Lara Stemple
