Wanted: Top notch law school that doesn't mandate minimum attendance

hobby-lawyer 3 Feb 2015, 12:25

Hello all,

I am an Engineer with a degree in Engineering from Stanford University.

I moved back to India a couple of years ago and have my own company which keeps me (incredibly) busy. I took some delicious classes in the law department at Stanford and I’ve been intrigued about law and want a degree in law ever since[Also, I miss writing exams =) ]!

Anyway, I’m holed up in Pune and am wondering if there is any college in Pune and/or India that would let me study law without having to attend classes (I honestly can’t attend classes while working at the same time). My only requirement is that the college/univ has to be reputed and must confer upon me the rights to practice law.

Any suggestions?

PS: I’m 26 years old so I don’t fit the 20 year age requirement in some places.

Thanks for reading this post. Cheers =)

GLC Mumbai, no contest.

Hey,

Thanks for the reply. I did some preliminary research and found out that GLC, Mum is the perfect combo of a stellar rep on one hand and disregard for attendance on the other.

I’ve attached a screenshot of their website just to make sure. I hope it won’t be an issue going forward!

Also, they’re open for admissions after UoM declares results — so July-August then?
