L.L.B. / J.D. Dual Degree in Law

the.night.we.met

Hi,
I have applied to King's College London, University College London and the London School of Economics for L.L.B. (3 years), awaiting decisions. All three of these provide a joint degree programme with Columbia University for a J.D./L.L.B. (4 years). I'm aware of the stiff competition that entail these programmes. But as far as I recall, you require a 4 year Undergraduate degree in non-law course to apply directly to Columbia or any university for a J.D. degree.

Is that also the case for this joint degree programme, or are students pursuing L.L.B. (3 years) right after high school allowed to apply for this?

Thank you.
