Check if you qualify

The Bachelor of Laws (LL.B) at Pentecost University is a degree programme in the Faculty of Law. It prepares you for a career in legal practice and related fields, with entry that is less competitive than at some other universities.

What studying law involves

Programmes of this kind usually cover the core areas of law, including constitutional law, criminal law, contract law, tort, property law, and legal writing. You learn to read and interpret statutes and case law, construct legal arguments, and apply legal principles to real situations. The degree builds skills in critical thinking, analysis, and communication that are valuable in many professions beyond the courtroom.

How hard it is to get a place

Entry to this programme is less competitive than to the LL.B at the University of Ghana, where places are highly competitive. A number of other universities in Ghana, such as GIMPA, KAAF, and Wisconsin International University College, also have less competitive entry. Meeting the published admission requirements is the key step; you can check whether your WASSCE grades qualify.

What you can do with a law degree

Most graduates go on to become lawyers after completing the professional law course, working in private practice, the judiciary, or the legal department of a company or government agency. Others use their legal training in dispute resolution, legal research, academia, or roles in business and public policy where strong analytical skills are prized.
