The legal profession remains one of the most respected and rewarding career paths, offering opportunities in courts, corporate offices, government, and international organisations. In South Africa, the journey begins with earning a recognised law degree, most commonly the Bachelor of Laws (LLB). However, with so many degree types and universities to choose from, deciding on the right path can feel overwhelming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fortunately, there are clear pathways into the profession, whether you pursue an LLB directly or begin with another undergraduate degree that includes law as a major.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this article, you will learn about the qualifications required to practise law in South Africa, the differences between an LLB, BA Law, and BCom Law, how long it takes to qualify, and how to choose the right university for your studies.<\/p><div id=\"ez-toc-container\"

href=\"https:\/\/www.law.regenesys.net\/\">Africa<\/a>, you must hold an LLB degree from an accredited institution. Accreditation is important; make sure the degree you choose is registered with the <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/South_African_Qualifications_Authority\">South African Qualifications Authority (SAQA)<\/a> and approved by the Council on<strong> <\/strong>Higher Education (CHE). Every approved degree has a unique SAQA ID, which you can verify online.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The LLB is a four-year undergraduate degree designed to provide both the theoretical foundation and practical understanding of South African law. While the structure may vary between institutions, all programmes are aligned with the CHE\u2019s learning outcomes to ensure graduates are adequately prepared for professional training.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you have completed your LLB, the process does not end there. You must serve two years of articles (practical training) under a practising attorney, and then write the relevant professional board exams before being admitted as an attorney or advocate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Is_an_LLB_degree_the_only_way_to_get_to_practice_law\"><\/span>Is an LLB degree the only way to get to practice law?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The LLB is the most direct and common route to legal practice, but it is not the only one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you already hold an undergraduate degree, you may still apply for an LLB. Depending on the subjects you studied, you may be required to start from the first year, or in some cases, be granted credits for law-related modules completed earlier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Students who hold a BCom Law, BA Law, or even a degree in another discipline can complete a truncated LLB. This usually takes an additional two years on top of their first degree. While this path takes longer (around five to six years in total), it offers the advantage of broader academic exposure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This route is particularly attractive if you want to pair law with another strong foundation, such as business, social sciences, or humanities, before specialising in law.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Read more on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.regenesys.net\/reginsights\/llb-programme-in-south-africa\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">LLB Programme in South Africa: Career, Fees &amp; Subjects<\/a> here!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/lp.regenesys.net\/rls-bachelor-of-laws-llb?utm_source=llb_blog&amp;utm_medium=llb_banner&amp;utm_campaign=study_llb_online1&amp;utm_content=which-bachelors-degree-is-best-for-law\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\" noreferrer noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"536\" src=\"https:\/\/www.regenesys.net\/reginsights\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/LLB-2-webp-1024x536.webp\" alt=\"LLB in South Africa\" class=\"wp-image-175947\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.regenesys.net\/reginsights\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/LLB-2-webp-1024x536.webp 1024w, https:\/\/www.regenesys.net\/reginsights\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/LLB-2-webp-300x157.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.regenesys.net\/reginsights\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/LLB-2-webp-150x79.webp 150w, https:\/\/www.regenesys.net\/reginsights\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/LLB-2-webp-768x402.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.regenesys.net\/reginsights\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/LLB-2-webp.webp 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Which_is_better_%E2%80%93_a_BA_Law_or_a_BCom_Law\"><\/span>Which is better \u2013 a BA Law or a BCom Law?\u00a0<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Before deciding between a BA Law and a BCom Law, it\u2019s important to understand that neither degree makes you a lawyer on its own. Both provide an excellent foundation and can serve as stepping stones into a full LLB, but the right choice depends on your career interests and academic strengths.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s how they differ:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>BCom Law<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Focuses strongly on the commercial and business aspects of law.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Covers key legal subjects like family law, criminal law, succession law, law of persons, and constitutional law.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Can be combined with majors such as taxation, management, accounting, financial management, or investment management.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Well-suited for students who aim to enter corporate law, tax law, or commercial litigation.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>BA Law<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Offers a broader focus on humanities and social sciences, with law as a central component.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Students may study politics, psychology, sociology, criminology, or languages alongside core law modules.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Best suited for those interested in human rights law, constitutional law, family law, or international law.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Both degrees give you credits that can often be transferred into your LLB, making your transition smoother. The choice between them should be based on whether you are more inclined towards the commercial\/business world or the social sciences\/humanities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Which_Bachelors_Degree_is_Best_for_Law\"><\/span>Which Bachelor\u2019s Degree is Best for Law?\u00a0<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If your goal is to qualify as a lawyer as quickly as possible, the LLB is the most efficient choice. It is designed specifically to prepare students for practice in just four years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, if you want flexibility and a broader background, a BA Law or BCom Law can be a great starting point. These degrees allow you to explore areas outside of law while still laying a foundation in legal studies. After completing one of these, you can transition into an LLB and complete it in a shorter timeframe than starting from scratch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ultimately, the \u201cbest\u201d degree depends on your career aspirations:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Choose LLB if you want the fastest route to legal practice.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Choose BCom Law if you are interested in corporate law and business-related practice.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Choose BA Law if you are drawn to human rights, public service, or international law.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>No matter which degree you start with, remember that the LLB is non-negotiable for admission as an attorney or advocate in South Africa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Read more on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.regenesys.net\/reginsights\/types-of-law-degrees-in-south-africa\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Types of Law Degrees Available in South Africa<\/a> here!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Which_University_is_Best_for_Law\"><\/span>Which University is Best for Law?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Choosing the right university is just as crucial as choosing the right degree.
