Can I change my course and college from BA to LLB after first year?
Hello Anuja,
Yes, you can change your course from BA to LLB after your first year, but it depends on the specific policies of the college or university you are attending. Typically, you may need to apply for a transfer, and whether this is permitted can depend on several factors:
-
College/University Policies : Most colleges have a set procedure for transferring from one course to another. You will need to check with the administrative office or academic counselor to understand their transfer policies.
-
Eligibility Criteria : If you are changing from BA to LLB, you will need to meet the eligibility requirements for the LLB program. Some colleges may require you to have completed specific subjects or may have a cutoff for admissions based on your performance in the first year.
Admission Process
: Some colleges might allow you to join the LLB program only if there are vacancies or if you meet certain academic criteria. You may need to apply for the new course and go through an admission process.
Lateral Entry : Some law schools offer lateral entry into their LLB programs, but this is typically after completing a specified number of years in another related course or based on academic performance.
You should consult with your college's academic office to determine the exact steps, eligibility, and documents required to change your course. It is always best to act quickly to ensure you don’t miss any deadlines or procedural requirements.

Hello,
It's highly unlikely that you can directly switch from BA to LLB after the first year. LLB is a professional course with a different curriculum and admission process. Typically, you'd need to restart your studies, meet the eligibility criteria, and secure admission to an LLB program through a separate application process. You’ll have to drop from your current program and start again with first year
