Law students were not duped says Taylor's and HELP

Taylor's University and HELP University have responded to a statement by the Malaysian Bar which named five universities that offered law degrees that are not recognised by the Board.

According to Taylor's University they have not placed any misleading information in their advertisement.

"Information about this matter has been published in all of our prospectuses and included in information-sharing sessions with prospective students and parents," said Taylor's University dean of law school Harmahinder Singh.

He said students enrolled in its Bachelor of Laws (LLB) course were given the option to graduate in the homegrown programme or transfer to one of its partner universities from the UK which are on the list of universities recognised by the LPQB for the Certificate in Legal Practise (CLP) exam purposes.

Likewise, HELP University law and government faculty dean Vasantha Moorthy said students enrolled in its LLB programme were given offer letters which stated that they were pursuing an academic degree which would not qualify them for the CLP exam.

"The students have been duly advised that they cannot join the legal profession upon graduation," said Vasantha.
