Why study law with the University
of London Undergraduate
Laws Programme? In a world
where degrees and degree
providers are proliferating, the
University of London LLB ofers
the security of an internationally
recognised gold standard
established for over 100 years.
The University of London was the
frst university to ofer a degree in
English law (the LLB), in the 1890s
and that degree was made available
to International Programmes
students from the start. The high
reputation of our LLB has been
maintained because International
Programmes students are marked to
the same high standards as campus-
based students. Upon graduation
you will join a distinguished group
of lawyers, solicitors, barristers and
judges from around the world who
have obtained their law degree
through the University of London.
Seeking to become a legal
practitioner is not the only reason for
studying for a legal qualifcation. You
might already be working in a law-
related feld in the police force or
social work, for example and want
to enhance your legal knowledge
and professional standing. Your
career path might lie in the
commercial or fnancial professions,
where legal qualifcations are
highly valued not only for specifc
knowledge of law but also because
of the transferable skills that come
with the study of law such as
mental dexterity and problem-
solving abilities. You might be a
special issue campaigner, lobbyist,
or might want to fnd out more
about how law works and possibly
go on to higher academic studies.
Many of you might be interested
in the Diploma in Law. It ofers
an authoritative stand-alone
qualifcation in key common law
courses for those interested
in gaining core knowledge
of common law and also an
alternative way into LLB studies.
Whatever your reasons for study,
we can guarantee you that applying
yourself to studies in law will provide
a stimulating and challenging path.
As an International Programmes
student you register with the University
of London for one of its awards. The
academic direction of your programme
including the syllabus, assessment,
learning resources and, where given,
academic support is the responsibility
of a particular College, or consortium of
Colleges, of the University of London,
known as the Lead College. Together the
six Law Schools of the University act as
the Lead College for the undergraduate
Laws programmes in this prospectus.
When you graduate with a degree,
diploma or certifcate from the University of
London you will be sent two documents
a fnal diploma (the parchment you receive
on graduation) and a Diploma Supplement.
The fnal diploma indicates that you
were registered with the University of
London and awarded a University of
London degree, and gives the name
of the Law Schools which conducted
the examinations. The University of
London logo and the Vice-Chancellors
signature are incorporated.
The Diploma Supplement describes
the nature, level and content of the
programme you successfully completed
and includes a transcript of courses
taken and marks achieved, as well as
the overall classifcation. It also provides
further information about the role of the
Lead College and method of study.

Narendra Lalbeharry
LLB, Trinidad and Tobago
The University of London sets
a high standard not only in the
academic qualifcation and
the worldwide recognition of
the LLB programme, but also
for the administration and
support facilities available to its
students across the globe.
The degree is challenging in
terms of workload, expectations,
requirements and marking,
but worth the efort. A main
requirement of the LLB is the ability
to develop research and analysis
skills. These skills have served
me well to date and have made
me very efective in performing
my present roles as Head of
Legal at the Equal Opportunity
Commission of Trinidad and
Tobago and a Senior Lecturer at
the College of Legal Studies.
In the future, I hope to be
able to build a strong practice
as a human rights Attorney
and better improve the state of
public law and discrimination
law in Trinidad and Tobago.
The worldwide recognition of a
University of London LLB degree
is certainly an asset to any student
graduating with this qualifcation.
Narendra is Head of Legal at the
Equal Opportunity Commission
of Trinidad and Tobago.

Alexey Pashinskiy
LLB, Russia
Having a University of
London degree helped me
to pursue a career in an
international law frm. Many
employers were impressed
with my CV. Since the end
of 2011 Ive been working
with Squire Sanders LLP.
I would recommend
the University of London
LLB since it gives you an
advantage in pursuing a
legal or academic career.
It certainly gives you an
opportunity to develop
such skills as analytical and
critical thinking, legal writing,
and independent research.
The studying process is
challenging but the reward
is worth it. The International
Programmes provided a great
chance to obtain an English
law degree while studying in
your home country but at the
same time gaining the same
experience and evaluation
during the studying process.
Alexey studied at the
Russian Academy of Justice
in Moscow and now works
for international law rm

< Flexibility both in respect of the
time you can take to complete
it and in the choice of courses.
< You are rigorously examined
by University of London-
approved academics.
< Specially developed course
materials and a wealth of
online resources, including
the Online Library and Online
Virtual Learning Environment.
Flexible study options
Using the specially developed
course materials and a wealth
of online resources you are able

beside the appropriate course(s). For example, you need
to have already studied Property law (prerequisite) if
you want to choose Law of trusts as an option unless
you are studying the Diploma over one year as a full-
time student, in which case you would study Property
law (corequisite) at the same time as Law of trusts.
Notes

Eeshah Khalid
LLB, Pakistan
Quality education was
always a priority and the
ensured that I wouldnt
need to compromise on
that. It was also a convenient
option as I was going
to get an international
degree from a renowned
university without
having to leave home.
What I liked best was the
fexibility the programme
ofered me in terms of my
study pattern. I knew I had
to be prepared for my exam
at the end of the session
but throughout the year I
had the luxury of choosing
which subject areas to
concentrate on at what
times. This really helped
me balance my studies
and personal life as well.
The study guides are
brilliant; they should be
the focus of your studies.
Supplementing them with
notes from textbooks is
important, of course, but
I feel its essential to know
everything thats there in the
subject guide. Thats whats
actually relevant. I think
its also a great idea to go
through all of the examiner
reports that are available
at least a couple of times.
The ability to sift
through large amounts of
information and developing
arguments systematically
are both skills that will
defnitely help me as a
lawyer in the future.
I would defnitely
recommend the University
of London International
Programmes. It enables you
to receive an international
degree which is recognised
worldwide even if you
cannot or do not want
to go abroad for further
studies. The course has been
designed and explained
so well that it can easily be
studied independently. The
fact that its challenging
gives you a great sense of
achievement when you
actually pass the exams.
Eeshah studied at SZABIST
in Karachi. She achieved
a First Class degree in
2013, outperforming more
than 2,000 International
Programmes students
worldwide to achieve
the top mark for the LLB.

The University of London LLB is a well-recognised degree at an
affordable price tag. Its reputation and versatility prompted me to
select it as my stepping stone to a successful legal career. Employers
in Malaysia acknowledge its value very much too. Doing the LLB with
Brickelds Asia College (BAC) is perhaps the best choice I made.
The LLB taught me not to assume or accept any given
facts without analysing it rst. Equipped with this skill, it
enables me to tackle problems presented to me in various
perspectives and not to be too judgmental.
I strongly believe that success should not be
measured solely on achievements, but how you
can help others with your abilities. It would
be ideal if I can be a successful lawyer and am
able to help those in need, regardless of their
background, with my knowledge and skills.

Farah Nusrat
LLB, Bangladesh
Fascination for law was always
within me as my great uncle on my
fathers side, the late Mr Justice B.
A. Siddique, held the honourable
position of Chief Justice of East
Pakistan High Court during the late
1960s. I heard numerous success
stories of my great uncle since
childhood and was overwhelmed
to learn about his great stature
and dignity in society and in the
legal feld. My passion for a legal
career increased even more with
time when I realized that this
profession is one of the most
efective ways to bring social
change and reform social injustice
by working within the legal system.
I chose to study through the
International Programmes mainly
because it ofers foreign students
the opportunity to study law from a
renowned institution while staying
in their home country. I didnt want
to leave my family or my country
to pursue undergraduate studies
abroad, and even my parents
thought that I was not mature
enough to handle things on my
own in a foreign country. So the
International Programmes provided
a golden opportunity to fulfll
my dreams of being a part of an
institution which has a worldwide
reputation for excellence.
While staying in my comfort zone,
it has helped me to pass my LLB
Honours not only with a 2.1 but
also being awarded a prize by the
Programmes for achieving the third
highest mark in Bangladesh in 2007.
Farah works for a law rm in
Bangladesh and has enrolled as
an Advocate of the Bangladesh
Bar Council. Read a Q&A with
Farah in our online magazine,

obligations between parties to
commercial transactions and the
relationship with rules of personal
property. Emphasis is placed on

practical problems. Students will
become familiar with a range of
issues including: ownership of or
title to goods; transfers of title and
its efect on third parties; passing of
property between buyer and seller.

academic courses does not
always correspond to the courses
required by professional bodies

Law Degree on pages 2425).
Compulsory
Intermediate
level courses
Common law reasoning
and institutions
This introduction to the English
legal system seeks to convey
what is distinctive about the
common law approach as a legal
methodology. The course is vital
in initiating students into the
process of legal research and the
understanding of legal reasoning.
Criminal law
This course examines general
principles of criminal liability,

A vital course for anyone intending
to operate in a commercial feld,
the syllabus centres on the way
the law regulates companies and
the facilities that company law
ofers, such as limited liability and
transferability of shares, as well as
corresponding burdens such as
duties of disclosure and compliance
with statutory procedures.

psychological and philosophical
points of view the relationship
between the individual who breaks
the laws of the state and the states
power to lay down laws and punish
those who transgress them.

fnal-year students the opportunity
to undertake in-depth legal/socio-
legal research. Students design their
own research question and submit

a) electronic submission of a
10,000 word dissertation and
b) a short fnal examination.
EU law
EU law is a required
course by the professional
bodies in England and
Wales for the LLB as a

the key questions of the impact
of EU law on national law and its
overall consequences for business
enterprises and individuals.

rights seeks a difcult balance
between rewarding the right
owner of a piece of intellectual
property, and the needs of
society to gain access to scientifc,
technological or cultural benefts.
It includes copyright, patent and
trade mark law with particular
emphasis on English law.
I would recommend the University of
London LLB as it is renowned, exible and
well-structured. The best part is that you
have full support from the University of
London. Useful study materials including
the subject guide, newsletters, past exam
papers and examiners reports could all

Labour law
Of appeal to anyone interested
in industrial relations, this course
relates both to individuals in their
workplace and the operation
of the labour market in general.
The course covers not only
individual matters (such as
employment contracts, unfair
dismissal, redundancy, sex and
race discrimination) but also
collective labour law including
trade union recognition, the law
relating to trade disputes and the
protections given to workers who
choose to join a trade union.
Public international law
Public international law concerns
legal relations between states but
also deals with the role of the UN
and other international organisations
and, in the felds of human rights
and international criminal law, the
rights and duties of individuals.
Course outlines
The University of London International Programmes offers a world of
convenience to those who wish to study in their own country. It allowed me
to obtain an internationally recognised degree while remaining in Pakistan.
I would highly recommend the programme as it opens up doors
towards higher education such as the BPTC. It is intellectually
demanding and encourages students to be open-minded in their
approach towards the law. The wealth of optional subjects to
choose from gives satisfaction to those with the most voracious
of intellectual appetites. The University of London helps
you go as far as you want to without ever leaving home.

LLB, Seychelles
Law is both interesting and empowering. It
is also a means of using knowledge to help
people who cannot represent themselves.
The skills I acquired through this LLB
continue to prove helpful two years since
graduation. It has taught me to be thorough
and meticulous. I have developed research
skills with both books and the online library.
I am able to work under pressure and whilst
most students at the Bar struggle writing an
opinion for three hours it was not something I
struggled with. The LLB is not an easy degree
so it has taught me hard work, perseverance
and determination leads to success.
I was called to the Bar by the Honourable
Society of Lincolns Inn in October 2013. It was
a great feeling to be elevated to the position
of barrister. It felt like the years of hard work
were all worth it. Like the University of London
creates a global family, being called to the
Bar feels like being part of a legal family.

The University of London is one
of the most revered educational
institutions in the UK, with a
vibrant history. Three months
after completing school I opted
to study the LLB through the
Programmes at the Royal Institute,
Colombo, as I was condent of the
Universitys name in upholding
its international reputation
of academic distinction.
The University of London is
a prestigious and time-tested
institution with superior
quality education. It feels great
to have been part of this.

How to apply and register
Once we have received
all the necessary
documentation we check
your application and
give you a decision. We
email you with one of the
following responses:
EITHER You are qualied
and we will email you a letter
ofering you registration for
your chosen programme
(called the Ofer letter).
OR It appears that you
are qualied and we are
provisionally accepting
you, but in order to
receive a fnal Ofer letter
you will need to submit
further information and/or
documentary evidence (as
specifed in our letter) that
confrms the qualifcations
on your application form.
OR We require more
information and/or
documentary evidence
before we can make a
decision on your application.
It may also be necessary to
then refer your application to
the Special Admissions Panel
who consider qualifcations
which are not published
under the Qualifcations
for Entrance Schedule,
incomplete qualifcations
(e.g. diplomas/degrees) and
substantial work experience.*
If we cannot accept your
current qualifcations and
experience, we will advise
you what qualifcations
you could take in order to
become eligible in the future.
OR We are currently
unable to accept you onto
the programme. We will
then make some suggestions
as to what you might do to
become qualifed. If you take
our advice and obtain the
qualifcation(s) we specify
within the validity of the
application form (three years
from the date it is submitted),
you should submit evidence
of the qualifcation(s) to
the Admissions Ofce. If
it is then confrmed that
the conditions have been
met and the qualifcation
is still available, the ofer
of registration will be
issued. You will not need
to submit a second
application or pay a second
application handling fee.
Note: If you apply for
admission to a degree but
we are unable to accept
you, we will automatically
consider you for an
alternate entry point where
applicable. If you are eligible,
we will send you an ofer
letter for that route.
Shortly after you receive the
ofer letter, we email you
details of how to register
online. You should register
as early as possible but no
later than 30 November.
Once you register, we send
you your study materials.
Stage 3 Stage 4 Stage 5
Useful information for applicants
< Submit your application
even if it is incomplete
(for example: if you
are waiting to sit an
examination or to
receive examination
results). Do not delay
we can often begin
to consider your
application without
all the evidence.
< We cannot fully confrm
whether you are eligible
until your application,
the required evidence
and your application
handling fee has
been received.
< We will process your
application as soon as
we receive your fee.
You are also asked
to note that this fee
cannot be refunded.
< Once your application
is received, it is kept

information you need
about your application
at no extra cost.
* The Special Admissions Panel considers every aspect
of the application including all qualifcations, relevant
work experience and reasons for study. However,
you are asked to note that applications are rarely
accepted on the basis of extensive/relevant work
experience alone. Evidence of a qualifcation obtained
since leaving secondary/high school is also invariably
required. Having considered your application, the
panel may decide that you must obtain an additional
qualifcation(s) before an ofer of registration for
the International Programmes can be made.

Recognition of prior study
Graduate Entry/
Advanced Standing
With a completed rst degree
If you have already completed
a frst degree (e.g. a BA or BSc),
then you may be eligible for the
LLB Graduate Entry Routes. This
means that you will only have to
study nine courses rather than 12.
< Your frst degree must be from
an institution acceptable to the
University for this purpose.
< You must also satisfy the
general entrance requirements
for registration.
Note: Qualifying Law Degree
(QLD) status. The Graduate Entry
Route LLB is recognised as a
QLD by the professional bodies
of England and Wales, so long
as the other QLD requirements
are fulflled (see pages 2425).
Credit transfer
The University will assess all requests
for credit transfer on an individual
basis and at its own discretion.
You may be able to transfer credits
in individual courses if you have
undertaken part of an appropriate
degree at another institution and
passed these courses. This allows
you to complete your studies
for the LLB as an International
Programmes student under
Scheme A or Scheme B. Credit
transfer for individual courses is
not possible for the Diploma in
Law or Graduate Entry Routes.
< For students wanting to transfer
onto Scheme A or B, we can only
ofer a transfer from another
UK-based QLD programme, and
then only if certain requirements
are met. This is in order to comply
with rules relating to entry into
the legal profession. The rules
are quite specifc and you will
need to seek advice (the rules are
slightly more relaxed for Scheme
F, as this is not a QLD programme).
< You will only get credit for
fully completed years and you
must not be carrying any failed
subjects. For further information
please see our website.
< We can normally only give credit
for a successfully completed
Year 1. Credit transfer is only in
respect of Year 1 courses on
the LLB and only provided the
applicant is carrying no fails
from fnal or subsequent years
at the original institution.
In considering whether to grant
recognition of your prior study
on the QLD Schemes A or B, the
University will follow the Credit
Transfer sections of the Guide to
the Academic Stage of Training
issued by the professional bodies in
respect to qualifying as a barrister or
solicitor in England and Wales. For
details of transfers of credit on to
Scheme F, please see our website.
Accreditation of
prior learning
If you have obtained Level 6 of
the Professional Higher Diploma
in Law or the Professional Higher
Diploma in Law and Practice of the
Institute of Legal Executives, you
may apply for accreditation of prior
learning (APL) for up to a maximum
of four Intermediate courses. No
other professional qualifcations
are automatically eligible.
The University will assess APL
requests on an individual basis
and at its own discretion.

30
How do I apply for
recognition of prior study?
Please read this section carefully.
In the case of recognition of a
completed frst degree you need
to follow the instructions in respect
of applying for Graduate Entry
(see the appropriate section of the
online application form). For the
purposes of credit transfer, you
must make a formal application.
Please complete the Application for
credit transfer section of the online
application form when you apply
(see Application and registration
process on pages 2829).
If, for any reason, you are unable
to do this you should write as soon
as possible to the Admissions Ofce
at the address given on page 28.
Deadline date
We must receive your
application for credit transfer
no later than: 1 October.
On receipt of your credit transfer
application, the Admissions Ofce
will send you one of the following:
< A credit transfer request pack
comprising a request form,
fee slip and a covering letter.
Please complete and return the
request form and fee, following
the instructions given in the
accompanying letter. You must
also submit all the documentary
evidence requested in the letter
and the fee indicated. We will
only be able to fully consider your
application after we have received
the necessary documentary
evidence. Once we have
received this we will then take a
decision on your application for
recognition of prior learning as
soon as possible. Please note that
it is not possible for us to refund
this fee, even if we are unable
to award you any recognition
for your prior learning.
< A decision letter informing
you that your request has
been unsuccessful.
Note: Applications for recognition
cannot be considered after a student
has registered to sit examinations.
Students must note that no
recognition will be granted unless
specifc application has been made.
The LLB is governed by six prestigious University of London Colleges which are
committed to provide the highest quality education possible. I viewed winning
the Malaysian Law Scholarship as a golden, perhaps a lifetime, opportunity to
pursue my dream and deepen my knowledge of Law, by studying in the country
where the English Common Law system was developed. This is indeed a one in a
million opportunity. Im looking forward to sharing and learning about law with
the experienced professors at Kings College and my future course mates from
across the world.
Vivian Oh
Current LLB student, Malaysia
Vivian is the winner of the Malaysian Laws Scholarship, awarded annually by the Undergraduate
Laws Programme to the Malaysian student who scores the highest marks in Year 1 of the LLB.
The Scholarship will allow Vivian to complete her degree at Kings College London.
31
We recognise that students value
choice in how, when and where
they study. Some prefer the
fexibility of being able to study
independently, at their own pace,
using our study materials. Others
prefer the benefts of face-to-
face teaching and classroom
support, and choose to pay for
additional educational support at
a local independent institution.
We currently work with a growing
network of 50-plus independent
teaching institutions worldwide
that provide tuition support for
our students. We refer to these
institutions as recognised centres
and there are two categories:
Afliate Centres have demonstrated
a sustained commitment to
the quality of teaching, support
and administration; Registered
Centres have demonstrated
acceptable standards for the
purpose of supporting International
Programmes students in
preparing for examinations.
The Diploma in Law may be
studied either full time or part time.
Students must have registered
through, and be studying at, a
teaching institution that has
been recognised for teaching
this Diploma by the University
of London. In the following list,
institutions that are recognised for
teaching the Diplomas are marked:
DIPLOMA-TEACHING INSTITUTION
