LLB 2 Year Accelerated Degree
Tue Dec 18, 2007 03:20 PM
Hello all, as you know I've applied to law schools in the UK. Thus far I've received offers from the University of Kent and the University of Aberdeen. I was wondering if anyone knew about the reputation of these schools. Also, I interviewed with Cambridge and was wondering if anyone knew about their follow up process, what should I except next and the likelihood of receiving of offer of acceptance after being interviewed?

Furthermore, do I have to accept or reject the two offers soon, or can I wait until I’ve heard back from the other universities? I was a little unclear on the UCAS rules. Thanks so much for the advice and assistance!!
Happy Holidays!

While I can't give you any information about the UCAS procedures, I can tell you that the three universities you mentioned are all top notch. However, if you go to the University of Aberdeen, you will get a degree in Scots Law (a form of codified Civil Law), and not a degree in the Common Law of England and Wales. That could limit you job prospects if you want to work in London, etc.

you should check the ucas rules, esp since you're applying for the two year LLB, but I know for the normal undergrad degree you can definitely wait till you hear from the other unis. my friends at cambridge received conditional offers by the end of december, but it can take longer sometimes.
Best of luck!!
