Hello,
If you wish to do your LLM in the UK, I would suggest that you start by looking at a website such as
http://www.masterstudies.co.uk/
Do look at the selection of LLM types and universities as LLM is a very popular subject in the UK so you will have lots of options. The cost will vary depending on the programme or university but on average you should look at around £10,000 - £15,000 for course fee plus living costs for the duration of the programme (one year). You can narrow down depending on your location preference, budget and the entry requirements. Once you have decided, you can apply directly to most universities through their website.
1) To apply you will need a copy of your education transcripts, a proof of English language (more on that below), references and a personal statement.
2) Once given an offer you may be able to apply for a scholarship to help support the cost of study - this will vary from university to university. You can also contact the British Council in India to see if there are any general scholarships for the UK you can apply for
3) If you decide on a university and are happy with the fees, course etc., and have an unconditional offer you will normally be required to pay a deposit to secure your place and to begin the visa process. You are required to get a tier 4 visa to study in the UK, this visa will be available for the duration of your study and you can find out more here:

In regards to English language, some universities may be able to use your English grade from your standard 12th but others may ask for you to sit for the UKVI IELTS, achieving an overall grade of 6.5 (this may vary depending on University). The best thing to do is check the requirements with the individual university and give yourself enough time to register for a test if one is required.
I hope you find this useful and good luck with your search.
Regards
Sophie

Hi Jayees, admission criterion varies between universities. To study MSW applicants must have a BSW with good grades (atleast 70%) and must have completed research methods or statistical methods during their bachelor's degree. Few universities such as Mc Gill University require applicants to have atleast one year work experience.
The ideal choice for you would be a masters in sociology or related fields such as gender studies, work and labour markets, political sociology, urban sociology to name a few. Masters programmes are research oriented and usually leads to Ph.D. Hence it is important that you have inclination towards research.
University of Toronto, York University, University of Manitoba, University of Alberta and University of Calgary are few of the options you can try. GRE is not mandatory for admissions. The application process is online and the deadlines are usually before 15th Jan for Fall intake. International students must strictly submit the applications by the recommended deadlines. Since admission requirements are different, please check the university websites for details. Hope this helps.
