http://www.llm-guide.com/board/49637 en LLM without a LLB? - LLM GUIDE Discussion Board Sat, 02 Aug 2008 20:16:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/49637/last#49637 I am currently in my last year of University in the US, studying Political Science. 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.

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" http://www.lse.ac.uk/collections/law/programmes/llm/llm-faqs.htm#7. 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 it is a matter of checking websites for the approach of the institution in each case.
