FAQs

• How competitive is the LLM admission at LSE?
  
  Admission is quite competitive. Meeting the minimum entry requirements does not guarantee an offer. Applications are evaluated on academic merit, class rank, coherence of proposed course choices, letters of reference, and (if applicable) professional experience.
• How are assessments done in the programme?
  
  Assessment methods include written exams (usually two-hour exams in the main exam period), summative essays (such as 8,000-word essays), and the compulsory 10,000-word dissertation.
• What is the structure of the LLM programme (courses & dissertation)?
  
  Students must complete four full units, which typically means eight half-unit courses. One compulsory course is Legal Research and Writing Skills, assessed via a dissertation of about 10,000 words. The remaining courses are chosen from a wide range offered by the LLM.
• Can non-law graduates apply to the LLM programme?
  
  Yes, but only in exceptional cases. Non-law graduates need to show significant academic or professional experience in areas closely related to the law subjects they wish to study. Those who have completed a law conversion course are more likely to meet the eligibility.
• What is the minimum academic qualification required to apply for the LLM at LSE?
  
  A very good undergraduate degree in law (LLB or equivalent), usually a high upper second class or better. Applicants with a strong degree in another field plus a graduate diploma in law (or equivalent) may also be considered.
