Studying law as a minor here, started this year.
Just want to say that I completely disagree with some the negatives of the above poster.
Lancaster University is not "in the middle of no-where", it is next to the town of Lancaster. This isn't really relevant as yes, it's not a city university like Liverpool or those in London, but as a campus university, it has a lot to offer on site including a brand new multi-million pound sports centre, cinema, theatre and many different shops, restaurants and takeaways.
In terms of it being cold, this isn't really something to be concerned about. I expected it to be rainy or cold when I arrived, but have been shocked to find that it is basically the same as London here, the most I've seen it go to is only few degrees less than the capital, which is nothing in terms of the standard English weather. We're in England, expect occasional rain, grey sky and windy autumn's.
Finally, the location of Lancaster doesn't have anything to do with work experience or work placement opportunities. There are many companies which come here to promote themselves in all ranges of careers, several opportunities for meet and greets a week in fact. You should also remember that if you are basing the university you go to on its proximity to work placements, you are really limiting the number of placements you'd be willing to take at any university.
In terms of prestige for Law graduates though, that I'm not sure of. Although Lancaster is dramatically climbing the ranks each year
