Is a U.S. LL.M. still worth it in 2026?
In this video, I break down the real pros and cons of doing a Master of Laws in the United States as an international student, based on job market data, visa rules, bar exam eligibility, and the true financial cost of the degree.
Whether you’re applying for Fall 2026 or still deciding, this is the most honest LL.M. reality check you’ll find.
I cover:
✔️ Job market for LL.M. graduates (15–25% get U.S. jobs)
✔️ Visa challenges (OPT, H-1B lottery odds, timelines)
✔️ New York bar exam eligibility
✔️ Cost of an LL.M. in 2025–26 ($80k–$120k+)
✔️ Return on investment (ROI): who actually benefits?
🎯 My goal is to help you make a smart, informed decision and not one based on hype.
