Program description
Students who already have an undergraduate degree but would like to switch to law school in just two years can do so by enrolling in the LLB (Hons) Law Senior Status program. You can choose three LLB course choices to tailor your education to your interests while still studying all the required modules for a law degree. If you want to become a barrister, you can use the knowledge you gain from our degree to sit for the new Solicitors Qualifying Examination (SQE 1), or you can go on to our Bar Practice Course.
Our LLB Senior Status program will teach you how to conduct thorough research, draw sound conclusions, and articulate those conclusions clearly in both oral and written forms. The course prepares students for any field that calls for a bachelor's degree, as it imparts general analytical and transferable skills.

About the university
The University of Law is the largest law school in the United Kingdom and was formed in 1962 as The College of Law of England and Wales. It offers law degrees, specialized legal training, and continuing professional development courses for British barristers and lawyers. Its beginnings can be found around 1876.
Prior to receiving university status in 2012, the College of Law's educational and training business was divided off and incorporated as a private limited company. The College of Law had been established by royal charter as a charity in 1975. The College of Law Limited and The University of Law Limited were created from this. The college was given the authority to offer degrees in 2006. When it was given university status in 2012, it changed its name to The University of Law (ULaw) and became the first for-profit educational institution in the UK.
The university has nine campuses in the UK, located in Birmingham, Bristol, Chester, Guildford, Leeds, Manchester, Nottingham, and Sheffield, in addition to an overseas campus in Hong Kong.
All of our courses, from our undergraduate law degrees to our varied range of business courses and postgraduate programmes, are created using a special, varied, and innovative learning approach that has been shown to produce independent professionals capable of competing in the quickly changing professional world. Our courses are created to prepare you for the real-life difficulties of the working world with a focus on developing abilities in problem-solving, evaluating arguments, critical thinking, and commercial awareness.
