What you can do to prepare
Before coming to University, it is a good idea to get into the habit of reading a quality daily newspaper – in print or online – every day. BA Law with Criminology covers a range of fast-moving and up-to-the-minute topics which are frequently the subject of news coverage, and so the better you engage with quality news sources, the more informed you will be, and the better able to perform well on the programme.
You may be excited and eager to make a start and delve into your study of the Law; please do have a look at our Preparing to study Law Padlet, which includes some useful suggestions to help you get started.
