Course in depth
What this course covers, who it suits and where it leads.
What you'll study
You'll study core legal principles in your first year, Contract Law, Public Law, and Criminal Law, then progress to Tort Law, Land Law, and broader legal frameworks in your second year. From Year 3 onwards, a typical Law course like this normally moves towards specialist options such as commercial law, human rights, criminal justice, family law, employment law, and legal practice (SQE), alongside independent research or supervised work in a law clinic. The Italian Legal Studies element integrates comparative legal perspective alongside this foundation, allowing you to explore how legal principles work across different jurisdictions.
Who it's for
This course suits students with a strong interest in law and the Italian legal system who want a qualification recognised by the Scottish legal profession. Most accepted students held A-levels or equivalent qualifications, with typical entrants having more than 240 UCAS tariff points. You should be prepared for intensive study across four years and comfortable engaging with both English and Italian legal frameworks.

International students
What applying to University of Glasgow from outside the UK involves: fees, English, visa, funding and living costs.
Tuition fees
International tuition is set per course by University of Glasgow; international fees are typically £12,000–£30,000/year for classroom subjects and higher for lab/clinical ones. You’re not eligible for UK Tuition Fee or Maintenance Loans, so plan for fees plus living costs upfront.
English language
Most UK undergraduate courses ask for around IELTS 6.0–6.5 (no band below 5.5–6.0), or an accepted equivalent. If you’re just short, most universities run a pre-sessional English course that counts towards the requirement.
Student visa
You’ll usually need a Student visa (Student Route). After you accept an offer the university issues a CAS; you then show funds for fees plus about £1,023–£1,334/month living costs and pay the Immigration Health Surcharge for NHS access.
Scholarships & funding
Many universities offer international/global scholarships (often £2,000–£6,000/yr), check University of Glasgow’s funding pages.
Living costs
Budget roughly £1,100–£1,400/month outside London and £1,400–£1,800/month in London for rent, food and travel; the figure also matters for your visa.
Working while you study
A Student visa usually allows up to 20 hours/week in term time and full-time in holidays, useful alongside study, though not something to rely on for fees.
Visa rules and fees change. Always confirm the current requirements with University of Glasgow and gov.uk before you apply.
