Hi everyone,

How funny to read these posts:) most of them sound so much like me "holding an unconditional offer from KCL, having 7.0 in IELTS- having conditional offer from UCL and finally which one is better, taking in consideration that it is so unattractive to take another test in this midsummer time?!":)
I guess no one tried to ask for a waiver in regards of the English Language Requirement fulfillment? Do you think it is not worth it? That is what i did with KCL actually and they accepted it and released me from the TEST torture :)
will be happy to hear any clever comments on the issue of discussion:)

hi LJ,

The problem i guess is that UCL does not accept the English Language Waiver request, atleast that is what they say.. especially in law.. i guess that is the reason why such a thing has not happened..

Cheers..

Hey there meghapurohit,
First of all I am not a dude,I am more of a girl:)
Secondly, I did not mean to offend anyone and if you clearly read my post, it was a pure question not a hint or something, I wondered if anyone has tried the trick with waiver thing and if anyone succeeded:)
And finally I do not think that anyone can let himself be so arrogant, here at this forum, since one should understand how much tension is on everyones side and that this kinda replies are pretty useless:)
Good luck everyone with all you do and happy to help if needed.

Hi all,

I got accepted to both UCL and KCL for the LLM. I'm interested in commercial law modules.

I'm having a bit of a dilemma regarding where to choose. For KCL I received a scholarship (King's Alumni Bursary) worth 20% of the fees, which makes my tuition a mere £4,400 (as I'm a UK student).

UCL was actually my first choice, but the cost is much more - £7,450 for home students. I'm still waiting on the results of my scholarship application, but as there is only 1 scholarship for home students it's a long shot.

Any advice/comments would be appreciated. Thanks!

Hi

My suggestion is take KCL if you have the scholarship. Not much difference between KCL and UCL in my view. I'm going to KCL but without a scholarship and I'm an international student. :))))

In your position, I'd opt for KCL. I don't think UCL justifies the additional costs, and I don't believe that an LLM from UCL will offer you anymore kudos with employers than an LLM at KCL. At a European level, KCL is more high-profile too (although I'm not sure why!).

Thanks cowboyblues,

Thanks..

That's such a broad subject matter that's it's hard to determine which college is best.

I'd suggest you get a list of the LLM courses offered at KCL and UCL, and make some specific choices, then investigate who teaches them, and if the course is running in your academic year etc.

I've not really heard of either university being better at commercial/corporate law generally - in fact, I'd say QMUL's CCLS is better known for commercial law in some respects.

Though, I truly believe that KCL is a good school, worth applying.
