<p>I was just assuming it would be obvious that having the intent to study for an American JD would mean I would eventually be seeking to work in the United States and not Canada. I understand that some people do not like this for the usual reasons. I also understand that it’s much harder for a non-citizen even with a US JD to get a job in the US. I’ve also considered taking a law conversion course in the UK after undergrad there, which would allow me to practice law in the UK.</p>
<p>I do not have an undergrad yet as I have only just firmed the offer from LSE, though hopefully in three years I will have it assuming all goes well. Right now I’m just trying to plan ahead. In regards to the price tag of law school in the US, it’s my understanding that if you do really well on the LSAT and have a good GPA (or a 1:1 from the UK) that some schools offer scholarships that significantly reduce the overall price, though obviously it would still be expensive.</p>
