* A candidate's degree must be in common law and will normally be from a Hong Kong or Commonwealth institution. A candidate must also demonstrate competence in the following required law subjects or subject areas (or subjects recognised as their equivalent): Constitutional Law, Contract, Criminal Law, Land Law, Tort, Equity and Trusts, Evidence, Business Associations, Commercial Law, Hong Kong Constitutional Law, Hong Kong Legal System and Hong Kong Land Law.  From the academic year 2021-2022 onwards, Civil Procedure and Criminal Procedure will be taught in the PCLL programme and will no longer be the PCLL prerequisites to entry.

** An IELTS band score is valid for three years from the Application Deadline.

Applicants who:

1. hold a LLB or JD degree from one of the three universities offering such degrees in Hong Kong must be able to demonstrate competence in the nine 'Core' subjects: Constitutional Law, Contract, Criminal Law, Land Law, Tort, Equity and Trusts, Evidence, Business Associations, Commercial Law and three 'Top-up' subjects: Hong Kong Constitutional Law, Hong Kong Legal System and Hong Kong Land Law by passing such subjects as part of their law degree. They are not permitted to take the Conversion Examinations offered by the Conversion Board in any of the nine 'Core' or three 'Top-up' subjects.

2. hold a law degree or other recognized law qualification acceptable to the Conversion Board, from a university, other than one of the three universities offering such degrees in Hong Kong, may be able to demonstrate competence in the nine 'Core' Subjects by passing such subjects as follows:

All applicants, (including native English speakers), must take the International English Language Testing System (IELTS) test (Academic module) and submit the band score obtained as soon as possible and in no case later than the first Friday of August each year, i.e. for a 2025 application, you must submit the IELTS test results by August 1, 2025 at 5:30 p.m. Hong Kong time (the "IELTS Deadline"). No further extension of time to submit your IELTS test results will be allowed once the IELTS Deadline has expired.

No other English language test (e.g. TOEFL) will be accepted. We do not accept IELTS tests taken online; you must attend one of the authorized IELTS test centres in person to take your IELTS test. A minimum standard of the IELTS test must be achieved as a requirement for admission to the PCLL. At present the prescribed minimum IELTS overall band score is 7.0. This is a requirement of the Hong Kong Standing Committee on Legal Education and Training. No exemptions will be granted. In light of the new One Skill Retake Policy by IELTS, we have agreed in consultation with the other PCLL providers that we will not accept test results where an applicant has retaken one skill.  This means that applicants must complete their IELTS examination in one attempt. Those applicants failing to obtain a minimum overall band score of at least 7.0 in one sitting, must retake all modules.  

You should not arrange for the IELTS test centre to send us your IELTS test results; applicants must do so themselves by registered mail so that there is a record of sending and delivery since non-submission of the IELTS test results by the IELTS Deadline will lead to automatic rejection.  It is the responsibility of the applicant to ensure that their IELTS test results are sent by registered mail and will be received by the PCLL Admissions Office before the IELTS Deadline. You should address all supporting documents as well as your IELTS test results to:

The PCLL Admissions Office, Faculty of Law
10/F, Cheng Yu Tung Tower,
Centennial Campus, The University of Hong Kong,
Pokfulam Road, Hong Kong

The PCLL Admissions Office accepts an IELTS test result as valid where it is obtained within three years of the Application Deadline, i.e. for a 2025 application, the test date shown on the IELTS Test Report Form cannot be earlier than April 30, 2022.
