How to apply for a place on a course unit in Laws
Non-laws UCL students and other University of London Laws students interested in taking a LLB course unit need to complete one of the following forms:

  • UCL students - Form
  • Non UCL students - Form

The form must be completed, signed by the Departmental or Faculty Tutor from your home department/faculty and handed in to the Undergraduate Office (room 103, Bentham House, Endsleigh Gardens) as soon as possible. The form must be accompanied by a short statement outlining your interest in taking a LLB module. Students from other institutions within the University of London should also submit a print-out or transcript of their university grades acheived to date.

Applications will be referred to the relevant Course Convenor for consideration and the Undergraduate Office will notify candidates of the final decision made.

Please bear in mind that when timetabling the undergraduate teaching we cannot take into account the timetables of other UCL departments or University of London institutions. If there is a timetabling clash it is your responsibility to resolve this.

The deadline to submit an application is Friday 28th September 2012.

Eligibility

Students who have no experience of studying Law at university level are eligible to apply to Intermediate (first year) LLB modules only - Contract, Public Law, Property I, and Criminal Law.

Any student applying to take a course unit in Laws must be of a good 2:1 standard or, alternatively, three grade As at A level, or the equivalent, if the student is in their first year of study. In addition, students wishing to study one of the Part I or Part II options must have already completed and passed the pre-requisite Intermediate module in the same subject (if applicable).

Even if a student fulfills the above criteria, the relevant Course Convenor maintains the right to refuse a student a place on one of the Laws course units should they consider them not suited to the course, or should the course have already reached its full capacity.
