Graduate Diploma in Law

The Graduate Diploma in Law is intended for those who wish to study law at postgraduate level without embarking on a law degree. It is also designed for those students interested in pursuing entry into the graduate law program. Students who have been unsuccessful in gaining admission to the graduate law program on the basis of their first degree results, may, on successful completion of the Graduate Diploma, apply again for entry into the graduate law program. The Faculty guarantees entry into the graduate law program if a credit grade point average of 65 is achieved in the Graduate Diploma.

Subject to pre-requisites, students may choose a program to suit their needs from LLB subjects offered by the Faculty.

A candidate must complete subjects to a value of at least 50 credit points including LAW810, LAW811 and LLB8395.
