Postgraduate Admissions Information

Academic Qualifications

Applications are welcomed from those holding a good second class degree from a UK university, or an equivalent qualification. Lancaster's taught postgraduate degrees are designed to be suitable for non-law as well as law graduates, so it is not necessary to have a law degree.

English Language Qualifications

If English is not your first language, you will need to satisfy the University's and the School's English language requirements. These can be satisfied by having studied your first degree in the medium of English in a majority English-speaking country, or else by possession of any one of the following qualifications:

  • IELTS (paper based): 6.5 overall, with at least 5.5 in each element
  • Internet-based TOEFL: 93 overall, with at least 20 in each element
  • Cambridge Proficiency in English: grade C
  • If you hold some other qualification, you should contact us and we will let you know whether this is acceptable.

You can also visit our English language entry requirements page for information.
