University of London vs. NTU

2

Hi All, I don't understand the difference between the LLB at University of London and NTU (Nottingham Law School). Is the UoL a real university and its LLB with Honors can be qualified as better than the one from NTU? I want to apply to both unis but I am concerned that I will have to pay for the next 4 years for an online diploma. I've already graduated BA+MA in Europe in international relations and I want to follow a career path into legal within an international org. or NGO. Therefore, which one of these 2 unis is better for long-distance learning LLB? Thanks! :smile:

Since you are already a graduate, why not do a 1 year post graduate diploma in law.

‘This course is designed for non-law graduates interested in becoming a solicitor or barrister. The Postgraduate Diploma in Law (PGDL) provides you with the foundation of legal knowledge and skills required for your legal training. For aspiring barristers, it satisfies the Bar Standards Board’s academic requirements to permit you to commence the vocational stage of training (e.g. the Barristers Training Course). For aspiring solicitors, it provides a solid grounding in the fundamental legal knowledge and skills required for key parts of the Solicitors Qualifying Examination.’

Yes, the University of London is a real university. It was established in the early nineteenth century and has seven constituent institutions. Perhaps you were confusing it with the University of Law.

If you are not using your degree in London, then go for university of London, as it is cheaper and mid tier but elite for international. But if you are considering moving to London to use your degree, choose NTU

Thank you! Can you please give me more insights in this regards? I don't like that UoL doesn't have any on-site support or moot court sessions. In terms of tuition, they are similar from what I've checked.
