Double Degree Programme:
Columbia Law School
Selection Criteria
Competition for admission is usually very tight. In general, students who do not achieve at least an upper second in their first year exams and any essays written in their second year (Michaelmas Term) are unlikely to be admitted. However, the cut-off may well be much higher than an upper second.
Candidates will be selected by LSE during their second LLB year. Candidates will be selected on the basis of academic performance, seriousness of purpose and maturity, and will be proposed for admission to Columbia Law School conditional on sustained academic performance in their second LLB year. Given the 'upper degree' status of law studies in the US, it is understood that there is a preference for more mature candidates who demonstrate a breadth of experience appropriate to undertaking US legal studies at the graduate level.
