i can't comment as to conflicts of law/restitution/insolvency, but i am taking HR classes and i LOVE the courses i am taking. i have to say that the LSE has the best/widest provision of HR classes, especially compared to oxbridge. it really is fantastic, and the diverse student body is definitely a huge addition.

as for cambridge vs lse. for the llm i would - for HR law at least - go for lse. i think the big advantage to cambridge as an undergraduate is the supervision system, which you don't get as an llm. lse is mainly taught in a seminar system which is much more interactive than the cambridge lecture system (though cambridge llms do get some occasional seminars). that said, if you've never experienced oxbridge go there if you really fancy wearing a gown and eating at high table. either way, you can't go wrong.

congrats again!

Thank you for your kind reply! What about the the doctorate programme in LSE - is it difficult for a LLM student to secure a place with a supervisor for the PhD? Also when does a student normally apply for the PhD? Some time ago a lecturer from Cambridge came to my school as a guest lecturer and he subsequently held an informal session with us talking about postgraduate admissions. I was told that the normal route would be that LLM students apply in September the year they commence their LLM studies indicating on the form that they will be "expected first class honours holders". Does the same apply to LSE?

Thanks again!

Re Glau912, I'm not sure what conditions are set for others. I think it depends on the grading system of your university and also the strength of your application aside from your academic credentials. I come from Hong Kong and whilst our law faculty is considered the best in the region, after all it is nothing but a regional school. I don't think the conditions set have anything to do with the reputation of my university.

Good luck with your application!

I've just received an unconditional offer from QMUL!!! Very happy :)

re: the phd, i'm not really sure about the details, but i imagine you would apply before january in the year of your llm. as for precise grade requirements, best check online.

in any case the most important thing for doctoral studies is to think through what you would like to research, and work on coming up with an interesting proposal. consider which academic you'd like to supervise you, and why. best of luck

My cousin received a conditional offer from KCL, namely that she obtains a grade of "Very Competent" on her BPTC. She studied in Canada and did the GDL here in England. Is this normal?

I will be applying to Queen Mary and UCL this week.
Queen Mary requires two references. Will my chances be any bigger if a send three academic references?

Also does anybody know if there is a point in sending an application to LSE now? I see a lot of people are waitlisted, but their program is still open?

Hy amber_fox,

I suggest that you review the prospectus carefully and try to identify anything to the contrary in terms of an additional reference. I have read an US law school prospectus indicating "please do not submitt more than two recommendation letters". If the prospectus is silent in this respect, I don't see a problem, but I would look for a different source for the 3rd reference (an employeer reference, for exemple, instead of 3 references from academic sources).

With respect to LSE, I believe you shoud apply ASAP, we never know if we don't try!

Good luck!

Best regards,

Yes, absolutely apply!

I used two references, both academic, and I encourage you to make sure that they are great. I cannot give particular advice as I have no inside knowledge of the preferences of the LSE admissions officers, but I would think that three references (if allowed) is unnecessary unless you have significant or very different non-law work experience that should be explained. More is not always better. Better is better.

Hi there

I've received an email from UCL's director of graduate taught programmes who has recommended to the admissions office that I be offered a place. A formal letter of offer is to follow in the mail within 6 weeks or so. Has anyone else received communication from UCL in this format? Did you receive the formal letter of offer as indicated? I've received an unconditional offer from QMUL which I haven't accepted yet. I don't know whether to take the risk and wait for the UCL letter.

I received a rejection from KCL today telling me that I do not meet the academic requirements, I hold a 2.1 Law degree, and that's what they require on their website. Has anyone else experienced this?
At a loss as to what to do now!

Thank you LBB!! I was quite excited when i received the email from UCL but it's such an odd way of giving applicants news. You don't know whether to be happy or anxious! I will give London a call tonight; I'm in Australia so the timing can be a little tricky. In your letter did you have any conditions?
