Admissions Criteria

Applicants must fulfil the admissions requirements for both degree programmes in order to gain admission. The requirements are as follows:

Admissions Requirements

LLM Degree

A good Bachelor’s degree in Law
Minimum TOEFL score of iBT 100 (Candidates with an iBT score of 92- 99 may also apply, but may be required to undertake intensive English language training prior to commencing law studies. Other TOEFL paper-based score of at least 600-603 and an IELTS rating of 7 will be considered, but we strongly prefer the iBT).

MPA Degree

A good NUS honours degree (second class and above) or equivalent (e.g., a four-year Bachelor's degree with at least an average grade of B or equivalent)
A good Bachelor's degree
Other qualifications and experience subject to approval by the Board of Graduate Studies
Good command of the English Language (minimum TOEFL iBT score of 100, TOEFL PBT score of 600, or IELTS Academic Test score of 7.0)
At least five years of work experience

Note: If applicants are unsuccessful in the double degree application (LLM- MPA), they may be considered for the single LLM coursework programme or the single MPA programme.

For the LLM-MPA, students must apply to the LLM-MPA double degree programme prior to starting either programme.
