Program Description
A Master of Studies in Law (M.S.L.), also Master of Science of Law or Master of Legal Studies (M.L.S.) or Juris Master (J.M.), is a master's degree offered by some law schools
to students who wish to study the law but do not want to become
attorneys. M.S.L. programs typically last one academic year and put
students through a similar regimen as first-year J.D. students. M.S.L.
students may study such staples as constitutional law, torts, contracts,
civil procedure, and other requirements alongside regular law students,
writing the same papers and taking the same exams. But they graduate
after accumulating two semesters of credit instead of six. Some M.S.L.
programs are designed for academics who hold Ph.D.s
in a discipline related to the law, and who want to add a legal
dimension to scholarship. Other programs aim to provide fundamental
legal education to professionals who are not lawyers, but whose careers
involve legal or regulatory issues. Compare Master of Laws.
Responding to this need, M.L.S. degrees are increasingly offered to
working professionals on an online or part-time basis, and allow
professionals to tailor elective law courses to their particular career
fields.

Answer:
When an application is pending a decision it means that your school has
received it and no admissions decision has been made yet. The
admissions office may have reviewed your application package or may not
have.
The main cause of a pending application is usually incomplete application documents. As a result
you will be requested by the school’s admission office to re-check and
modify all submitted application documents or perhaps even add extra
documents and then re-submit them.
To
avoid further delays, carefully read the university’s comments, modify
your application form on ACASC, and re-upload the required application
documents. You can contact ACASC on admission@acasc.cn for any help with regards to your pending application
Processing time varies for different applications. For example
to process a degree program application requires more time than a
Chinese language application. Confirmation for Chinese language
application by the admission office usually takes 2 to 4 weeks. However,
time for degree programs application differs. For example
fall semester application processing is after March, and it takes a
period of 1 to 2 months. This also depends on your qualification and the
number of applicants.
