universities for law
I'm an indian student planning to study law in the UK starting 2027. I'm looking for affordable unis that still offer good placements. Suggestions tell me that london unis are the best for law, but i'd like to know what universities outside london offer good experience and placements with a slightly lesser fee (around the 20k GBP bracket)

Hi @rangaaaa09 ,
If you want to keep your options open in terms of location, the University of Law is a great choice here. While there are two campuses in London (Moorgate and Bloomsbury), which will keep you close to the big law firms and busy city life, there are also many other campuses across the country - including Manchester, Nottingham, Bristol and Birmingham (see the full list here).
Currently, for a three-year full-time degree, course fees are £16,700 per year or £17,550 per year for non-London and London campuses respectively. You could also consider applying for an international scholarship or bursary, which you can read more about here.
As a student currently enrolled on the postgraduate conversion course, I honestly couldn't imagine studying law anywhere else. The teachers are practising/retired lawyers, so you get real-life insights into the practical application of the law; it has one of the largest careers services in the world, so you'll be able to find the support and opportunities to begin your legal career; and it has an outstanding alumni network, which can help to provide you with incredible networking opportunities. It really feels like the first step in your professional journey and is amazing preparation for whichever area of law you'd like to pursue!
Let me know if you have any questions and best of luck with your applications 😊
