Law Courses

Practise law with purpose.

Law shapes how people, businesses and communities live together. It needs practitioners with sharp minds, sound judgement and a clear sense of justice. At Alphacrucis, you’ll study the Bachelor of Laws in a small, founding cohort, taught by practising lawyers and academics who bring real cases into the classroom. Build the legal knowledge and skills needed for admission to practice, grounded in a Christian worldview, so you can serve clients, communities and the courts with integrity.

Pathways

There is more than one way into the Bachelor of Laws, and a clear path from your degree to practice. School leavers can apply on their ATAR or Year 12 results. If you’ve studied at tertiary level, worked for a number of years, or are returning to study later in life, you may be eligible through non-school leaver or mature age entry. Students in other AC courses can also transfer or combine Law with Ministry, Theology or Business in a double degree. After you graduate, you’ll complete Practical Legal Training (PLT) before applying for admission as a lawyer in NSW. We’ll help you understand each step along the way.
