About Graduate Diploma In Law (gdl) in BPP University
Our Graduate Diploma in Law is the law conversion course for graduates that don’t have a law degree. You need to pass this before you can study to become a solicitor or barrister, and with our GDL you’ll benefit from innovative learning that’s delivered by professionals who have been there and done it. That's why 96.5% of our full-time and part-time postgraduate law students have secured employment or further study.*
Non-law graduates, who have graduated in other areas, are often in demand by firms and recruiters. This is because they can offer transferable skills that go beyond the knowledge of other candidates. The GDL enables a smooth transition into law study, whilst developing the skills you need to secure a training contract or pupillage.
Our approach is trusted by the UK’s biggest legal firms. 60 leading law firms exclusively send their trainee solicitors to study our LPC, including 4 out of 5 Magic Circle law firms.** So when the profession trusts us, you can too.
