b) UK Law Transfer Program offered at HELP, INTI, KDU, Brickfields, etc.

Affiliate universities cited range from those like Exeter,Cardiff and Manchester to Northumbria and UWE. Hence,the minimum requirements cited are also two principal passes at A-Levels. (EE).

I'd really appreciate feedback from students currently enrolled in this program,regardless of which college they're at. Applications to the universities in UK are made through UCAS,am I right? If so, what are the prospects of actually *getting* into the university of your choice? Does it mean if you meet the academic prerequisites, your transfer application will be smooth sailing, or do applicants need to build up an impressive record of side-activities (curricular and non-curricular) as well?

From hearsay, UK universities can be a tad picky when it comes to external transfers, so it's worrying >.<

Thanks!

(Haven't completely ruled out the 3+0 external LLB option from UoL yet either,btw)

I'm doing the UK Law Transfer Program at HELP currently. As of now, I have already sent an application to the UCAS with my 5 University choices. The prospect of getting into the University abroad differs from one and another. For instance:

University of Manchester's pre-requisite: 2A 1B in A levels, and your current Year One finals must accumulated an average mark of 55%
University of Exeter's : They didn't mention about A levels, but you are compulsory to do the LNAT examinations before you apply.
University of Cardiff's : There's a slight change between last year and this year's entry requirement. They ignored the A levels result, and the average mark you need to score is 50% and all papers passed.

Regarding Twinning programmes and UK Transfers, Twinning guarantees a spot for you in their partner Unviersities, but on the other hand, Transfer Programmes doesn't. For my knowledge, I didn't heard anything about sports or curriculum requirement YET. Maybe it has something to do with the scholarship perhaps.

That's all I think, glad I could help.

That's why I chosed 2+1. I don't think 1 year will be enough to make any differences. Besides, it's around a year, not really 12 months.

Yeah, I'll be doing 2 years in UK. Which is why another reason the most established UK Universities encourages transfer programme students to go over during their 2nd year.
