Starting your law degree online
If you’ve been dreaming of studying law with an Australian university, your plans don’t have to be put on the backburner. You can get started sooner than you think, thanks to a number of Australian law schools offering online learning!
So, which universities are offering online delivery for law programs, and what does online learning look like?
Bond University
Intakes: January, May, September
Bond is committed to offering multi-modal learning. This means that lectures and seminars have been delivered either entirely online, or have consisted of a mix of online delivery for those unable to be in Australia and in-person delivery for those who are there studying the Bond Juris Doctor.
Blackboard Collaborate, TEAMS, and Zoom have allowed students to engage with lessons, chat with their instructors, and work with their classmates regardless of where they’re physically located. Overall, online learning at Bond has been considered a success!

Griffith University has also committed to flexible study options. If you start your Griffith University Juris Doctor online and travel restrictions are lifted, Griffith will continue to offer the flexibility to finish your trimester online or in-person.
