Yes, surprising. California banned legacy preference, but Stanford still considers it indirectly. Critics argue it reduces fairness, though universities defend it as preserving alumni ties and fundraising traditions.

Some German universities may accept open schooling if it’s recognized by AIU (India) and meets admission criteria. Always confirm with university’s International Office before applying to Studienkolleg or undergraduate courses.

Université Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne and Université Paris Cité sometimes offer hospitality-related programs. However, specialized hospitality master’s are usually found in private schools like Vatel or ESCP.

Plan budget carefully, choose safe housing near university, use student discounts, and join support groups. Winters are cold—carry warm clothes. Explore Derby’s affordable local transport for easy travel.

A solution may be expanding seats, promoting vocational education, and encouraging overseas study. Balancing local demand with international students can reduce pressure while keeping universities globally competitive.

High cost, intense workload, and competitive environment can be stressful. Pressure to perform is constant. Some students feel isolated compared to more collaborative, smaller law schools.

Stanford Law is supportive but not unlimited. Students may request accommodations, including exam adjustments, if justified. Approval depends on individual cases and documentation of medical, personal, or professional needs.

Strong academics, leadership, extracurriculars, essays, and financial need help. Apply for scholarships like Fulbright, university merit aid, and need-based grants. Competition is tough, so prepare early and apply widely.

Possible but complex. Germany’s law degree structure differs. US states usually require an American JD. Some allow LLM graduates, but job prospects may be limited for international students.

Ulster Bank, Bank of Ireland, and Santander offer student-friendly accounts. They provide low fees, easy online banking, and support services tailored to international students’ needs.
