My name on my application is different from that on my documents (transcripts/awards). Is this acceptable?

If your current name is different to the name on your birth certificate or your final award/certificate, you’ll need to provide official documentation to show your name change.

Accepted documents include: a marriage certificate, a signed affidavit provided you have changed your name by deed poll.

Do I need to have a full law undergrad to do the Law LLM?

The Law LLM is for law graduates to progress at Masters level. The Law LLB (Graduate Entry) is a two-year, full-time programme that provides a legal education for graduates in disciplines other than law.  The programme is ideally suited to graduates who wish to supplement their primary studies with a legal education or to graduates who are seeking a career change.
