Admission requirements

Who can apply (guide for Indian students):

  • Education: A completed Bachelor’s degree (3 or 4 years) — a law or related degree is preferred for some specialisms from a recognised university. ULaw is flexible on academic background and considers applicants with backlogs.
  • English test (any one): IELTS Academic 6.5 (no band below 6.0), TOEFL iBT 79, or PTE 65. (Test under 1 year old.)

Scholarships: International scholarships / bursaries of around £2,500 may be available for this course (confirmed in your offer; ULaw also awards an annual International Bursary).

University of Law is a UKVI-licensed sponsor, so graduates can apply for the UK Graduate Route (2 years of post-study work).
