Slim
Universities aren’t stupid. They don’t have secret back doors you can use to bypass a fair admissions process.
If you wouldn’t be happy studying the course you have an offer for then don’t accept it.

If Law isn’t in Clearing, basically slim to none.

Theres a reason unis frequently offer Criminology as an alternative to unsuccessful Law candidates.

Nottingham often offer criminology to applicants who are unsuccessful at the law course. I do know Nottingham offer both an LLB program and a BA program (the BA law is law + a European law) and I believe the BA program is generally less competitive (I still think the answer is probably no, the scenario you can always email and ask if they would consider you for the BA law first year program if you successfully complete year 1 of criminology with a high grade .. id be prepared for then to say no but you could always ask the question).

Hello @aleisham063,

I would recommend you to ring the university (Clearing Telephone) and ask for some guidance with regards to your case. Nonetheless, it may be rather difficult to switch from one course to the other, and hence, I believe that it is best that you give us a call so that you can get a quick answer!

I hope it helps!
Abián.
