History
The university traces its lineage back to tutorial firms and legal education entities in the 19th century, evolving through The College of Law established in 1962. It gained degree-awarding powers in 2006 and was granted full university status in 2012, becoming the UK’s first for-profit educational institution to do so. Over time, it has grown into a specialist university with a focus on law and adjacent professional fields.
Ranking
While global ranking tables place The University of Law relatively modestly in terms of worldwide academic research standing, its strong points lie in teaching quality and professional outcomes. For example, in the 2024 UK National Student Survey it ranked in the top 10 for teaching quality with high student satisfaction. Its specialism in legal education (LPC, BPTC, LLB/LLM, professional training) makes it a significant choice for those targeting the legal profession rather than broad research-oriented university routes.
