Our LLB (Hons) Senior Status degree is a two year LLB programme specifically designed for students who already hold a degree. In addition to gaining a Qualifying Law Degree in just two years, the programme offers you the additional flexibility of being able to select three LLB course options in your second year. This degree is taught by the same experienced, professional tutors as our standard three year LLB, using the same high-quality teaching methods.
