Harvard Law School
Okay guys,
How hard is it exactly to get accepted as an international student to Harvard? Obviously if I do become an Escort, that job will pay for my tuiton fees and what not, so money's not really a problem to me. I'm just wondering whether it's a better Law School than Cambridge, or other Universities internationally. I don't really want to study in Asia or Europe. Thank you.

Harvard Law School is the most prestigious Law School in the world, what grades do you have? Would you consider yourself Oxbridge standard? If not then no you won't get in.
It's where future Presidents of the United States go it will be very, VERY hard to get into. They will have their pick of the ABSOLUTE best from all over the globe not just America.
And being an Escort? Really? Prostitution? I'm not even going to start trying to explain why that is a bad idea!

I'm a low A grade student, so no, not really Oxbridge material.
I'm thinking of Yale or Columbia instead. The prospect of studying in the US is appealing to me.
Yale and Colunbia are still asking above and beyond Oxbridge applicants. Obama studied at Columbia, if you are a low A grade student, you don't have much of a hope at any Ivy, or Stanford, MIT, etc etc etc.
Just study in the UK, it would be better

Yeah but my GCSE's are awful, and the decent red brick uni's want 5 A grades at GCSE, which I don't have, therefore i'm stuck looking at polys.

Both of those are still Ivy League and extremely competitive, if you aren't getting A*'s i'd advise against it.
There are loads of really good Universities in the US that aren't Ivy League though, maybe look into those?
Or see if any do an entrance test as part of the admissions process, if you could do well on that then maybe you'd have a chance.
Have you thought about Canadian or Australian Universities at all if you want to study abroad?
if your grades are not good enough for UK unis then you certainly won't be accepted to an ivy league, they are so competitive for internationals... to be honest all american unis are competitive for international students... it would be very hard wherever you applied.
i also doubt escorting will earn you enough to pay thousands of dollars up front unless you are VERY lucky, which is what you would need to do.

Do you understand that Harvard Law school is a graduate school i.e. you need a degree first? If you want a decent chance, go and study at a less competitive university in the US and ace your LSAT plus have some magical extra curricular things then you may stand a chance at it. Also, even if you do get into Harvard Law you'd still have a hard time getting a law job in the US.

Yes, but does it matter if you did an under grad degree in the UK first?

Yeah, your chances would be much lower especially given the fact that you aren't going to a good university. You'd have a higher chance at studying a lower-ranked USA university than a low-ranked UK university. Also, what are your A levels grades?

Pah as if. In all seriousness, that is if you're being serious, apply to Harvard after you graduate from a decent uni in the UK?

Are those your predicted grade? Or AS grades? Regardless, if you study hard (take a gap year) and achieve A*AA+ and get into of these universities; warwick, LSE (unlikely considering your GCSEs), Oxbridge, UCL, Durham (same as LSE unlikely) and St Andrews (for non-law subjects) then get a 1st then you might have 5% chance at getting into Harvard Law.

Maybe so. I'll consider that option thanks.

Sorry, was that supposed to be the slightest bit amusing?
Your humour is terrible.
