LLB (Hons) Law
If you want to practice law or be a barrister, the LLB (Hons) program is the best choice. A Bachelor of Laws, or LLB, degree is the equivalent of a BA or BSc undergraduate degree and the first step toward a wide range of fascinating employment opportunities in the legal field as well as in fields like journalism, politics, policing, teaching, and much more.
Course Overview
What will I study?
The LLB programme has just been updated to suit current changes to professional practice qualifications in the UK. It is offered at our UK study centres and also as a completely online degree. You can now choose specialized degree pathways, such as preparing for a future as a solicitor by selecting course modules that contain the information necessary for the Solicitors Qualifying Examination (SQE 1). If you intend to become a barrister in the future, you might instead choose to choose a program that gets you ready for a bar training course. Additionally, if you live outside of the UK in a jurisdiction that follows common law, you may choose to take elective modules on EU and international law.
During your first few years of study, you'll have plenty of time to figure out which parts of a law degree truly excite you. Additionally, you'll find that this LLB course aids in the development of a broad range of skills, including critical thinking, effective communication, presentation, negotiation, and persuasion. You will graduate with a highly acclaimed degree that will be valuable for the rest of your life, and workplace qualities like these are extremely valuable across a wide range of modern careers.

Funding & Fees
Funding for your studies
All of the students will receive Student Finance which means that you don't need to pay anything.
Tuition Fee Loans
Your tuition fees are paid using a tuition fee loan. This is given to your University or College directly. Only once you have completed your study and are making at least £26,575 per year do loan repayments begin. Students who study full- or part-time may apply
Maintenance Loans
To pay for living expenses, you can also apply for a Maintenance Loan if you qualify. This loan is deposited straight into your bank account. After you complete your degree and earn more than £26,575, your maintenance loan is due. Please visit www.gov.uk/studentfinance for additional details.
Maintenance Loan is NOT eligible for studying ONLINE.
Maintenance Grants
Additionally, you can apply for a Maintenance Grant to assist with living expenses. At the beginning of the term, maintenance grants are deposited straight into your bank account. Although you are not required to pay them back, any money you get will lower the amount of the Maintenance Loan you might be eligible for should you decide to apply for one as well.
