Durham Law Applicants 2025

Hello everyone! I have applied for law at Durham and am curious to see who else has. I also felt it could be nice to be able to see when offers start coming through. For applicants: when did you apply, what are your stats and how did you feel the LNAT went? Good luck all!

I haven’t heard anything back yet, I applied on the 1st October, with good GCSEs and predicted grades above the requirement for a non-contextual entry, I sat the LNAT the week after, which I felt went ok

I've applied to Durham! Applied in the beginning of Oct and sat my LNAT late Sept and I'm still waiting on an offer 🙂

My stats are pretty good I think - predicted IB45 and reasonably good GCSEs (aside from a 7 in Math), but the LNAT is my biggest source of worry. My scores on practice tests were always really volatile, so even though I feel like the actual test went pretty okay, I'm really anxious (particularly about the MCQ). Essay was solid though, I hope!

Good luck to all the other applicants!

Do you mind sharing what your predicted grades are and what your offer is?

I just got an offer from Durham, but wouldn’t the admissions process be unfair for people who haven’t applied yet. How does that work?

they know how many offers they can give out at this stage, and they often only give them to people who they'd give an offer to anyway

Congratulations!!! If you are comfortable sharing,what are your stats (home vs international, contextual vs not, grades, application time etc.)? It's 100% fine if you'd prefer not to share tho! :smile:

Sure! I'm predicted 45/45 in the IB, and my offer is for 38 points (666 at HL).

Congratulations on your offer.
Are you home, non-contextual?
I’ve received an offer from UCL & have an interview at Cambridge but not heard back from Durham yet.
