Hello house,
I was given a full GA which covers the first semester alone. They said to maintain that I'll need to have a 3.0 GPA. Please, is this how a typical full GA contract is or does it normally covers a whole session.
Thanks in advance

Though your best bet is to ask your program coordinator, I'll go ahead and take a guess. That if you can have a 3.0 GPA minimum after the first semester, you qualify for the GA assistantship the next semester, and on like that.

Sometimes each school can custom how they choose to distribute their funding...its their money their choice
It would have been safer if the offer covered one year but as it only covers per semester depending on 3.0 GPA. ...then what choice do u have ??. Still not a bad deal

You just know from beginning that you must maintain 3.0 or u can lose it. .....personally except u are playing I think 3.0 is attainable so u should be fine.....most funding have a min GPA expectation anyway .....d only other issue is whether d school will then expect u to show a balance for d other semester before releasing i20...I dont know but u have to confirm that. Congrats on the GA... its a tremendous help in this Buhari economy

word!!! i still stare at my I-20 trying to figure out who is owing who, for instance you might see funds from department totally about 45000 dollars a session(fall and spring), but as far as this country is concerned other expenses would creep up

Yes they need me to show the balance which I did. Expecting the i20. Seriously, the 3.0 sounds to me like "what do they think of Nigerians". A real life saver in this difficult economic period. Thanks so much

Most schools I read about concerning scholarship/funding that's what they usually state that at each semester student must maintain a certain Gpa to qualify for the scholarship.. Although each schools has their own policy on funding

Maybe those with funding/scholarship who have spent 2 or more semesters should help out on this

If she wants to practice law in America she will need to attend a Law school, The legal systems are quite different , hence British legal system is not necessarily applicable here. To get admission into any Law school will require her to take LSAT exams and based on her scores she can apply to Ivy, National school or regional rank schools, which gives her better opportunities thereafter. The US law school runs for three years and it's regarded as graduate program too. when you graduate from law school, you will be required to write state bar exams depending on the states you wish to practice.unlike in Nigeria where we have a unified bar exams.
However, if she doesn't want to practice law, she can easily get schools that offer masters in law related programs without LSAT.

Concerning law in America. If d person is already a lawyer, u don't have to attend law school a over again. U evaluate ur transcripts nd go in for an LLM. After d 1yr masters, u re eligible t write d bar exams and start practice.
