Have you started your degree at another university, but your personal circumstances have changed and you need to study online or closer to home? Or did you start a standard law degree and now want to add a specialism to stand out from the crowd? Here at The University of Law we are always happy to welcome transfer students and want to make sure you get all the support you need in the process.
What does transferring university mean?
By transferring university you are essentially taking what you have achieved with your first university to a second one. We may recognise all of your achievements with the first university or just some of them, depending on what differences there might be between the course you studied and what you want to study with us. This is called Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL).
Why transfer to The University of Law?

For Business, all of our tutors have commercial experience.
SQE Update
Studying our LLB on the 3 year, 4 year with Foundation Year, or via any of our online LLB programmes (assuming you select certain options) will mean you are prepared for the new Solicitors Qualifying Examination (SQE 1) or to progress onto our Bar Practice Course (if you wish to qualify as a barrister).
What's the next steps?
If you’ve already successfully completed a course - or courses - at another institution then you can apply for Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL), so that you don’t have to repeat a module you have already successfully completed.
To transfer you will need to submit an application for the course you wish to study. Within the application you will be given the opportunity to let us know whether you intend to apply for RPL.
