This course is for non-law graduates, the Senior Status LLB was designed for those who would like to gain a law degree and benefit from legal study as a whole. Entry requirements are a good 2:2 (or equivalent) degree in any area of study. The degree allows graduates to qualify for further legal professional qualifications and covers the core modules required by the Law Society and Bar Council. It will give you a more in depth legal education than a one year graduate course in law. The first year is identical to the first year for the three-year LLB. In the second year you must complete the core courses of Criminal Law, European Union Law, Equity and Trusts and Land Law. The course allows graduates to develop critical reasoning and an understanding of the principles of English Law through the various areas of law covered. The Senior Status LLB has grown in recent years to have an average of 80 students per year. Many graduates use the Senior Status as a starting point for their professional studies and it has attracted a number of overseas students. If you have an undergraduate degree but you do not qualify for entry onto the Senior Status LLB you can take the three-year LLB and if you attain a 2:1 average in the first year of LLB studies you are able to request a transfer onto the Senior Status LLB for the second and final year. Senior Status LLB graduates not only go on to professional qualification but further advanced Masters level studies and higher.
