Hi all,

I am wondering what is the pre-requiste for LLM of London schools. I am attending undergrad in US and will receive BS in Business Administration concentrating in accounting and business law. Do I need a JD to apply for LLM programs in London? I want to focus on international law.

Thanks,

Hi,

I did my law undergrad in the UK. Generally, to do an LLM if you have studied in the UK you will need a qualifying law degree. In the UK this will almost always be the LLB. However, a person can also be admitted without a law degree if s/he has done substantial legal experience relating to the area to which he is applying. I have suspicions that the same thing would be applied to international applicants. How is the situation in the US? I know that candidates need to study something at an undergrad level then do the JD then the bar, but if you have done the undergrad can you do a US LLM or do you need a JD for that? For more info, you can visit King's College London LLM website and see the guidance for international students where they explain the entry requirements for all countries.
