Please note the following:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>As with the rule that LLB students from cohort AY2021\/22 can take up to 40 Units non-law courses within candidature, students may credit transfer up to 40 Units non-law courses completed at NOC (provided you will or have not completed any non-law courses at NUS or credit transfer any during SEP) towards the LLB degree requirement.
