LLB Conjoint programme

Comments

...

• We need to state the general requirements for conjoints (at least those applicable to the LLB. See Entry and Conjoint Requirements sections above.
• Based on the graduate numbers (see comment) we will show an LLB/BA only for the MVP. We can always add more conjoint examples later.

Entry Requirements

Admission to a conjoint degree programme normally occurs in a student's second year, but may also occur later. Students seeking to enter a conjoint programme must have a minimum of a B- average over the courses completed in the previous year of study, but not yet completed the requirements of either component degree. Students must maintain a minimum of a B- average over the courses completed each year in order to remain in the conjoint programme.

...

Conjoint Requirements

For conjoint programmes consisting of the LLB and a three-year degree:

• Total of 660 points required, of which:
  • At least 480 points from courses at 200 level or higher.
  • Maximum of 60 points may be credited to the conjoint programme from a previously completed degree.
  • At least 180 points from courses passed at Victoria University
• Students must meet the conjoint requirements for each component degree.
• 300-level courses may not normally be used to satisfy the major or specialisation requirements for both component degrees.

Supplementary information

"Many students who wish to study Law also wish to study other subjects on another degree concurrently. Referred to as a conjoint degree, this arrangement allows an efficiency in the total number of points that must be completed, but comes with some conditions. This section helps explain the LLB conjoint option. Students requiring more information are encouraged to contact . . ."

Note to explain which degrees are most commonly taken with an LLB and why we only show the BA example.
