Location of Oxford Brookes University
Students who take both the GDL and LPC courses at Oxford Brookes University have the option of receiving an LLB (Hons) (Legal Practice) degree. You will spend the first year of the LLB (Hons) Legal Practice at Oxford Brookes studying for the Graduate Diploma in Law. The second year will be spent at the Oxford Institute of Legal Practice (OXILP) studying the Legal Practice Course (the professional qualification for those intending to practise as solicitors).
Why Brookes?
OXILP prides itself on the level of one-to-one support it can offer its students. Due to its relatively small size, in premises centred in and around Headington Hill Hall, OXILP has a friendly, collegial atmosphere where students are treated as individuals.
All of the tutors at OXILP are ex-practitioners who teach the areas in which they practised.
The OXILP LPC is endorsed by many leading leading firms of solicitors including Henmans, Ince & Co, Orrick, Clarke Willmott, Manches and Morgan Cole.
