ELIGIBILITY, REGISTRATION AND ENROLMENT
 

In order to become eligible to enrol in the Diploma in Law course you must first register as a Student-at-Law.

To begin in May, you must submit your completed application to the Board no later than 1 March, and to begin in November, you must submit it no later than 1 September.

Please don't delay your application until these cut-off dates, as prospective students are registered progressively throughout the year. The earlier you apply, the earlier your application is likely to be approved.

Registered students enrol with the Board in late April and late October for the May and November semesters respectively. The Board and the Committee send enrolment information to students prior to the enrolment period.

Once you have enrolled with the LPAB you must register online with the LEC to access Subject Guides and supplementary resources.
