LLM without a LLB?
I am currently in my last year of University in the US, studying Political Science.Sat Aug 02, 2008 07:16 PM Is it possible to get accepted to Universities such as UCL, KCL or LSE for a LLM Program, even though I don't have a Bachelor of Law? Is anyone in a similar situation? Thanks already for any advice. |

LLM without a LLB?
For the LLM, from the LSE Law Department website LLM FAQ section:Sun Aug 03, 2008 02:27 AM "8. What are the Admission Requirements? The minimum entry requirement is a 2:1 (or equivalent) in Law, Accounting, Management, Business or Economics. Your application should include the following; Two confidential academic references A transcript of your previous studies An English language test (TOEFL or IELTS) – if applicable Application fee Personal statement" www.lse.ac.uk/collections/law/programmes/llm/llm-f…. As a general proposition, most people on the LLM have a law background. Having said that, LSE, at least, offers an interdisciplinary approach in which, if you are not admitted to the LLM program, there is a Law and Accounting, MSc., if that interests you. |

I think a number of institutions accept non-law graduates even without the interdisciplinary approach of the LSE. I think it is a matter of checking websites for the approach of the institution in each case.
