Our entry standards are high. The principal criteria for admission to the course is the applicant’s academic record, the key measure of which is the applicant’s prior performance at degree level, or higher, and academic references. We would normally expect an applicant to have an actual or predicted 2:2 or equivalent.

We also look for:

• Previous qualifications and work experience (legal or otherwise)
• Demonstration of an interest in legal work
• Fluency in written and oral English

The above policy accords with Kaplan’s equal opportunities policy. The course is only open to those holding qualifications approved by the Law Society/General Council of the Bar under the regulations in force from time to time. This is particularly relevant if you hold an overseas degree, or equivalent (please see http://www.lawsociety.org.uk/ or http://www.barcouncil.org.uk/ for more information).

Please note that the full-time course does not offer exemptions from subjects previously studied.
