I’m looking to get a masters in legal studies but I already have a masters in accounting. Does anyone know if the top 20 universities look at grad school GPA (3.84) if I already have a masters degree? Or do they still look at undergrad GPA (3.56)?

What's a masters in legal studies get you? Paralegal status?

They’ll look at both but would weight grad school more.

^i disagree with this. Have always heard undergrad matters much more, but I’ve also only looked into MBA and law school programs.

I also am curious about why you want a masters in legal studies. What’s the long term goal/plan?

Yeah at this point already having a CPA, go big (JD) or go home.

Honestly now I’m curious - what do they do if your program was a 5-year masters? I didn’t get an undergrad degree; my program was a masters bachelors combined, so I didn’t get a degree until I finished my 5th year
