Overview

Criminal Justice LLM is one of the routes we place students on most often, and it is offered widely enough that there is usually a fit whatever your profile looks like. It is a 1 year postgraduate programme, so the pace is quick and the dissertation carries real weight.

Teaching in Criminal Justice gives you a grounding in the English legal system before you specialise. We currently work with 25 universities on this course across 19 cities.

The lowest English requirement we hold on this course is IELTS 6.5, and departments asking more than that usually expect a stronger academic record too. Tuition ranges from £16.000 to £34.000 a year depending on the department, which is a real difference over the length of the course.

Where you land depends on your grades, your English and your timing. Send those three and we will tell you where you stand.
