Law - LLB

Our LLB programme at University College Cork (UCC) is a postgraduate law degree offering a distinct pathway for both Law and non-Law graduates.

Candidates must be approved by the School of Law and must normally hold a Second Class Honours in a primary honours degree (NFQ, Level 8). Applicants meeting the initial entry requirements and who have a Second Class Honours in a primary honours Law degree (NFQ, Level 8) or have equivalent professional qualification/s and experience in law, as determined by the School of Law, should apply for the 60 credit route. The number of places available in any given year is dependent on resources and all qualified candidates may not be admitted. The Law School uses a system of offer rounds to facilitate decision-making and early notification to applicants. Candidates are encouraged to apply as early as possible. Candidates who do not have their final degree marks available may be made a conditional (provisional) offer. New applications will continue to be reviewed at each round if there are still programme places available. For Applicants with Qualifications Completed Outside of Ireland Applicants must meet the required entry academic grade, equivalent to Irish requirements. For more information see our Qualification Comparison page.
