Zdravo! First of all, please remove your phone number and email address from the post. I have no clue what scholarships are available for law students, and best path would be to attend seminars in IACBG which are held for prospective grad students. In addition to attending orientation seminar at IACBG, there is a very rich library of books containing information about grad schools in US. Perhaps Elizabeth could give some opinion about financial aid for foreign law students . What about Tufts University in MA? And why University of Miami school of law? Is it because of Florida climate, or for the reputation of the school?

Greetings Everybody! My name is Dimitrije and I presently reside in Novi Sad. From the end of August 2007, I will be attending graduate studies at the Computer Science department of the University of Minnesota, in Minneapolis (www.umn.edu and www.cs.umn.edu). More precisely, I was admitted to the program of biomedical informatics and computational biology, which begins this Fall. I will be at disposal to those of you who still haven't started your personal research and don't know much about the process of finding your dream school, preparing for examinations and applying. I am confident that I couldn't have accomplished this without the help and assistance of Elizabeth and IAC. Therefore, follow her guidelines and attend her seminars!! )

Dear Elizabeth, I have one questions which is related to preliminary e-mail correspondence between me as a prospective student and professor at certain department. I attended your seminar, and you said we should contact professors at departments where we are interested to apply. OK, if I went through his or her publications and papers, learned something about his or her work, and then I decide to write him an inquiry letter. What should I ask him in concern to admissions procedure. I would express my interests in working with him or asking him if my academic profile matches his interests. But is the professor some significant factor at the admission process? Is he there to lobby for me if he or she is interested? My question is what should I ask professor except that I would like to work in his research group? Something about available funding? Assistantships? I've seen at web pages of college faculty that they don't like to be molested with admission questions, but respond only to research related questions. Thank you, Dimitrije
