A-levels: AAA
Advanced Highers: AAB, or AA plus an additional Higher at grade A
IB: 38 (including core points) with at least 666 at HL

Candidates are also expected to have at least a C grade in GCSE Mathematics, or other evidence to demonstrate that they are appropriately numerate. We accept any subjects at A-level except for General Studies.
To study in France, Germany or Spain candidates would be expected to have the relevant modern language to A-level, Advanced Higher, Higher Level in the IB or any other equivalent.

All candidates must also take the Law National Admissions Test (LNAT) as part of their application.
Fee and funding
Oxford University is committed to recruiting the best and brightest students from all backgrounds. We offer a generous package of financial support to Home/EU students from lower-income households. (UK nationals living in the UK are usually Home students.)
Fees
These annual fees are for full-time students who begin this undergraduate course here in 2016.
Fee status | Tuition fee | College fee | Total annual fees |
| Home/EU | £9,000 | £0 | £9,000 |
| Islands (Channel Islands & Isle of Man) | £9,000 | £0 | £9,000 |
| Overseas | £15,295 | £7,135 | £22,430 |
Living costs
Despite what you may have heard, it's no more expensive to study at Oxford than at any other university. In fact, our world-class resources and college provision can help you to lower your living costs.
Living costs for 2016/17 are estimated to be between £970 and £1,433 for each month you are in Oxford. Our academic year is made up of three eight-week terms, so you would not usually need to be in Oxford for much more than six months of the year but may wish to budget over a nine-month period to ensure you also have sufficient funds during the holidays to meet essential costs.
Financial support
| Home/EU | A full loan is available from the UK government to cover tuition fees for students undertaking their first undergraduate degree*, so you don’t need to pay your tuition fees up front. In 2016 Oxford is offering one of the most generous bursary packages of any UK university to those on a family income of £42,875 or less, with additional opportunities available to those from households with incomes of £16,000 or less. This support is available in addition to the government grants and loans. |
| Islands | Islands students are entitled to different support to that of students from the rest of the UK.
|
| Overseas | "Other Scholarships" |
*If you have studied at undergraduate level before and completed your course, you will be classed as an Equivalent or Lower Qualification student (ELQ) and won’t be eligible to receive government or Oxford funding
How to apply
Written work
You do not need to submit any written work when you apply for this course.
Written test
All candidates applying to study Law at Oxford for entry in 2016 (or for deferred entry in 2017) must sit the Law National Admissions Test (LNAT) between 1 September and 20 October 2015. A number of other universities also require candidates to sit this test.
The expectation is that you will sit the test onscreen in a test centre near your home. It will be a test of your aptitudes rather than your knowledge. Your performance in this test will be used as an additional factor in deciding whether to interview you and whether to offer you a place. Test centres are now located internationally.
