BPP!!!!

BPP and ULAW

I’ve applied to BPP (Manchester) and UWE. Will probably also apply to MMU, once their applications open.

Has anyone done the BCAT yet? I am quite worried about it.

I didn't think it opened until Feb 2020 (BCAT)

I know someone who did theirs in the summer (before it closed). So just wondered if there were any other early birds.

I got a BPP Manchester BPTC LLM offer today with advocacy scholarship. Sent my video just before Christmas, maybe on the 15th ish.

Just received a call from BPP confirming that I have been offered a place. Received an email shortly after. I was offered a place for the Leeds campus, but might change that later.

I've already done the BCAT. It's really nothing to worry about it. The practice tests really helped me to prepare.

Apparently a few people have gotten offers from BPP in the past week. Unfortunately, I haven't received any news to date. Anyone else in the same boat?

Just submitted my app for the BPC at Ulaw part-time. Any idea how quickly the admissions team take to respond with whether or not you are offered an invitation to attend a selection day?

Hi all,

I have applied to City, BPP and ULAW.

Had an offer from City so far and am awaiting the ULAW assessment centre day :smile:

Have you applied for Skype one or live one.

Also do you think it’s worth while applying to other providers, I’m not keen on any of the others but can’t really afford City’s fees

I didn’t know ULaw offered Skype interviews for the BPC. I assumed one had to be present at the selection days.

I assumed that too, but when I went to select my date of choice for assessment day I saw there were a lot of options (in terms of times and dates) to select a Skype interview!

They don’t seem to have advertisers that they do this
