Decide on the type of law you would like to study/practice. There are predominantly two main types of legal systems in the world: the common-law system and the civil-law system. The common-law system is a system of law that originated in the United Kingdom. Common law is based on the concept of precedent, a principle whereby legal cases are judged based on prior cases that have covered the same issue or a variation. Civil law, on the hand, is a system that originated from Roman law. Civil law heavily focuses on written/codified law, and is not based on prior cases. Countries such as the United Kingdom, New Zealand and Australia practice common law. Countries such as Germany, France, South Korea and Japan practice civil law.
Note that while the United States practices common law, obtaining an international bachelor of laws degree from a common-law country does not automatically make you eligible to practice law in the United States. You must contact the state bar association of the state where you intend to practice to see what their requirements are for applicants with foreign credentials.

For example, if you selected Europe, you will need to specify if you would like to study in Eastern Europe or Western Europe. Upon making this selection, you will see a listing of all universities and colleges in your selected region. Research the various university/college websites to find schools that offer an LL.B. program, and choose a program of greatest interest to you. Complete the application form to the LL.B. program, pay the application fee and submit your application. If more information is needed by the school to make an admission decision, you will be contacted.
When choosing an LL.B. program, you may want to choose a university/college that is regionally accredited by an accrediting agency recognized by the U.S. Department of Education. If your degree is accredited by a U.S. Department of Education accrediting agency, then your degree is regionally accredited in the United States. The Council for Higher Education Accreditation (CHEA) is one such accrediting agency recognized by the U.S. Department of Education that provides a listing of all accredited schools worldwide.
