Overview

OTHM Level 3 Diploma in Law is offered widely in the UK, so the useful comparison is between departments rather than between countries. It is a 9 Months (Standard)/ 6 Months (Accelerated) foundation course, the year before an undergraduate degree begins.

Teaching in Law covers the English legal system first, then opens into optional modules in the later years.

The lowest English requirement we hold on this course is IELTS 5.0, and departments asking more than that usually expect a stronger academic record too. Tuition is £5,950 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.

Careers opportunities

A qualifying law degree covers the academic stage only.
