Law at Uclan
Where are all the students who are going to study law at Uclan? Are they hiding under a big fat rock or something?
You aren't telling me that I'm the only person on this forum going to Uclan to study law, and that goes for all the other subjects people are posting about.
Come out, come out, where ever you are!

Well in fairness UCLAN isn't the number 1 choice for Law is it?

Its quite popular recently with law students, its got good ties with international places to study law and its got good career prospects afterwards.
I could always study at my local college thats just got a HE status as far but would gain a lancaster university degree at the end. However that all seems a bit of a lie.
Did you study law at uclan yourself? I emailed the Bar Council about the arguments about 'traditional' uni's being better and they said its the experience you can gain alongside the qualification that counts, so you should always get plenty of work experience on the side.
I've done my research and UCLan is a very good new university to study law at. The only situation I can think of UCLan not being good is if you were depending on the name of your universities name getting you a job, but I didn't think ANYBODY had the ability to do that.

here here, hehe!
blah. (random post)
I applied to UCLAN but I ended up rejecting the offer, but I still occasionally receive some letters from them. UCLAN may not be the no 1 university but that doesn't really matter, if you like the place then go for it! I'd rather spend three years at a place where am most likely to enjoy rather then dislike.
You really want to enjoy the whole university experience and reflect on the experience as being of your best not one of the worst.

Hey there! I'm gonna be studying Law at UCLan! Haven't found anyone else either.. are we the only ones?
LLB.. are you studying it too?
Its law llb lol... thats the full thing... its a bit worrying that you think llb and law are two different things. I got released into clearing instead and I'm going to Lancaster. Got bad student support all the time I was applying to UClan and towards the end i just gave up on them.

what when u need BBC to do LLB at uclan but u can do 'Law' with 200points?
they clearly are different

Lol ok then whatever, UCLan had alot of silly little issues like that but UCLan definatly has a course titled LLB law http://www.uclan.ac.uk/courses/ug/llb.htm
Maybe I'm missing something here but it was definatly referred to as that everytime I spoke to them about it aswell.
I'm getting the impression that law must just be a foundation course or something? If you click on undergrad courses on the website it only has LLB Law, so maybe now you'll understand why I dont understand what course you're referring to.

i dont know mate, i thought LLB was the path for like lawyers and solicitors and Law was just the study of the Law if u get me... maybe im wrong
can anyone clear this up?
Hmm well i've got friends wanting to go into other areas of law that are doing llb so its definatly not just limited to solicitors and barristers, but I just have never heard anyone refer to llb and law as two different things.
I'm sure someone must have an idea, as obviously somewhere you must have got the idea that they were seperate. You can't be the only one.

In response to Howard, i would just like to say that being like that about a university is really harsh seing as you have never been there and experienced what law is like there.
Under his name its says banned by request... if that means he requested himself that he should be banned then he probably isn't the sharpest knife in the drawer anyway
To put it bluntly, Howard was right about one thing, UCan isn't the best for law, its staff are slow, the student support isn't fantastic and its in a town with not such a great reputation, however the biggest let down for law is the sarcastic students like him who aren't friendly to other prospective students, and thats what holds the uni back. So I may be dull and blunt, but one things for sure, I wont let some sad anonymous forum geek get me down, because lets face it, you're the coward who cant put their name to their comments!
Good luck anyone studying law at UCLan, you're gonig to need it if the students who study in the same place cant even say anything nice about it.

As a mature student, I return to Uclan next week for my second year at LL:B(Hons) having survived the Darwinian process of natural selection by examination.
I do not recognise the connection between the negative comments I have read on this thread and the reality of life there as a law student. The staff are professional who actually take an interest in the welfare and progress of their students. A student there enjoys a wealth of support from both staff and other students within a well-tried and trusted support network.
Those who expect to have their arses wiped for them and take no responsibillity at all for any decision or choices they make will always blame 'lack of support' and those who lack the self-discipline for study and work deadlines who perform poorly as a result will usually blame the staff. If you are one of these, then do not bother to come to Uclan, we dont want you, neither do the staff!
Those who do wish to engage fully will find it rewarding. Those who expect an easy ride on the LL:B Programme, then stay away, you will be sadly disappointed and in for a rude awakening!
To those who like to engage in the ususual juvenile pursuit of university snobbery comparing 'red brick' and 'glass-fronted' universities - good for you! A pretty futile exercise if you are not at Oxford or Cambridge!
As for the town. It is not London, it does not have a Tube system but many find enough student distraction within it to find it interesting enough and for those who do not, Manchester is 15 minutes away down the M6!

Anyone here that's going to be studying LLB- the foundation entry, or living at Derwent halls in September?

I'm studying llb foundation.
And to answer earlier questions if you study a llb degree you can become a lawyer.
If you do a ba hons or other type of degree you will have to do another 1 year degree on top to become a lawyer.
The ba is just a more general study of law rather than a practise.
