This page covers LLB (Hons) Law in Practice (Top-Up) across the departments we work with, including what each asks for and what it charges. It is a three year undergraduate degree, with the specialism widening as you move through the years.
Teaching in Law is assessed largely through essays and problem questions, so written English carries the course as much as the subject knowledge does.
Tuition is £9,450 a year.
If you are comparing this against two or three other courses, send us all of them. We will set the entry terms and the fees side by side.
Entry requirements
Academic
A high school diploma with strong grades in relevant subjects. Many departments will also consider a recognised foundation year.
Careers opportunities
A qualifying law degree covers the academic stage only. To practise in England and Wales you then take the SQE and complete two years of qualifying work experience, and training contracts are competitive and applied for years ahead. Many graduates never qualify and use the degree in compliance, policy and business.
