Launched in the fall of 2010, UNH Law’s Franklin Pierce Center for Intellectual Property is home to one of the nation’s most highly regarded IP programs, a hallmark of the school since it was founded in 1973. UNH Law has received national recognition for the study of IP law for 25 consecutive years. In building relationships with leaders in industry and government around the world, the Franklin Pierce Center for IP has established itself as a global hub with rich and varied resources—including the only academic IP library in the United States. The Franklin Pierce Center for IP faculty, students, researchers, and partners work at the intersection of law, business, and technology, and students graduate with the skills and knowledge necessary to impact innovation in the ever-evolving world of IP.

The center offers one of the most extensive selections of intellectual property courses in the country, exposing students to a wide range of cutting-edge IP issues. Ahead of the curve in integrating intellectual property studies into legal education, the center focuses on offering students practical experience that will prepare them to succeed immediately in legal careers anywhere in the world—and, with a global network of successful alumni connected to the Franklin Pierce tradition, students have access to IP professionals in more than 80 countries.

Anybody else been waiting months on UNH? I feel like the 5th wheel. Either take me home or dump me!
17:12
Anyone have luck negotiating? I submitted my fasfa after they awarded me merit scholarships so I’m still waiting to see if anything changes with that as well
17:15

sadboihappychill
14:24
@KatD: hi! I just saw this. I've DM'd you!
sadboihappychill
14:24
@TheDoood: I really hope you hear soon!
@TheDoood: that is unfortunate and discouraging since I still haven't applied Lol
my trash LSATs have made me a late applicant twice, once to really just one school as a "lets see what happens" and this year as my first real "Fire the torpedoes" barrage of applications
I'm applying to hybrid programs, and may throw 1-2 "For fun" out there just to say that I had applied to them. I feel that a lot of us non-trad. applicants shooting for hybrids really are weird in that some of us already make more than what a lot of lawyers make in their first 2-5 years
idk, maybe that's not weird but presents limiting scenarios on choosing where to attend lol
20:34
Hii so apparently unh has a liberal policy for allowing professors to not grade on the curve. Does anyone know or have any idea how frequently that is actually applied where there isn’t a curve ?

My only A!
This the one I wanted, though. Hybrid program is key
