Entry requirements

We will consider all applications with a Bachelor of Laws with 2:2 (or international equivalent). Applicants without a Bachelors in Law may apply for the LLM but need to demonstrate a high level of professional or academic experience in Law. In addition to degree classification we take into account other elements of the application such as supporting statement. References are optional, but can help build a stronger application if you fall below the listed requirements or have non-traditional qualifications.
