Jain University, Bangalore - Law Admissions 2026
NAAC A++ Approved | Curriculum Aligned with BCI & UGC
Law is one of the most respected professions and sought-after fields in the world. After graduating with a law degree from a recognised university, students can opt for various careers such as a lawyer, legal advisor, or judge. However, due to its high demand, many students may wonder whether it is possible to pursue a law degree through distance or correspondence mode. While distance learning is gaining popularity in recent times, students must understand a few things about pursuing law through distance mode.
Various law courses are offered in India, however not all the courses are recognised by the BCI as being equivalent to a law degree. Some of the courses offered in law are mentioned below.
UG Courses in Law
PG Courses in Law
According to the circular released by BCI, it does not recognise MA Law as equivalent to a LLM (Legum Magister). LLM degree is specifically created for law students, while an MA consists of broader academic subjects and is considered separate from an LLM degree.
For admissions, students need to appear for relevant entrance examinations. CLAT, SLAT, and AILET are the popular entrance examinations. Many universities also conduct university-level entrance examinations. In the table below, we have provided the exam details.

Law as a career is regulated by the Bar Council of India (BCI). It governs legal education and law practice. According to BCI, it does not recognise any law degree pursued through online, distance, correspondence, open or distance mode. It mandates that law education should include classroom lectures, moot court and practice.
While distance or correspondence mode may sound intriguing to law aspirants, legal education requires practical training and moot court practice. All these requirements cannot be met successfully through distance mode. To practise law in India, students need to pass the All India Bar Examination (AIBE).
To conclude, legal education cannot be attained through open and distance learning (ODL mode). To pursue a Law degree, students must have an LLB or LLM degree from a recognised institute in India and successfully clear the All India Bar Examination (AIBE) examination.

Hello,
For a law career, you must complete Class 12th and then pursue a 5-year integrated law course or a 3-year LLB after graduation. In class 11th you need to choose any of the three streams, but if you choose subjects like economics and business studies, it will be beneficial.
I hope it will clear your query!!
