QUOTE(S_SienZ @ May 18 2015, 06:09 PM) Someone's a tad defensive. I stand by what I said and to be honest, that's what you should bring up with your sponsor. For most local sponsors, it's a complete no-brainer. It's actually stupid on their part to insist that you study law in the US. They invest more in you and start getting ROI much later, and even the additional investment probably won't make you any better than if you were a UK grad. I dont think she has a choice though,think:u got a jpa mara offer to study in US,well lots of things are already being sponsored up to ur degree later,why would anyone wants to forgo the chance,well yeah she can do in local uni but an opportunity like that doesnt come easily.wait a question for the person who get the scholarship,is this the jpa mara scholarship because if it is,law is under social science,how are u so sure u can secure a place for law?or u can pick is it,btw u should go for it.

I never said she should forgo the scholarship, but she should bring the issue to the sponsor's attention and negotiate. Like I said, it's actually an obvious choice even from the sponsor's standpoint. Avoiding the US for law saves money, time and problems of adapting to our jurisdiction for ALL parties.

Yes its the JPA-Mara, and no, its not a sure. Actually, Im not that sure anyway for we have neither meet nor contact (a tell-tell to those who suggested negotiation) the sponsored organisation spokesperson at all.
