Financing your study

We understand that studying at City can be expensive. Studying for a law undergraduate, postgraduate or professional qualification can be expensive especially when you have to progress through the various stages required to qualify as a lawyer.

There are a variety of loans, bursaries and scholarships available to both undergraduate, postgraduate and professional studies students to help fund your study.

Scholarships

The City Law School is firmly committed to a generous programme of scholarships awarded on the basis of academic excellence. Our scholarships range in value and include both partial and full fee waiver awards.

They are open to students across all of our programmes and both home and international students are strongly encouraged to apply.

The City Law School's Scholarships Committee looks carefully at the full range of qualities possessed by each individual and it closely considers the broader context in which the academic excellence has been achieved.

We also believe that it is important to value the potential of applicants to make a positive contribution to the School, the legal professions, and the community when we evaluate applications.

Graduate Loyalty Discount

Once you have studied at City we are sure you will want to stay with us to progress to the next stage of your legal training. As an added incentive, we offer City students a loyalty discount upon enrolling on a second course here at the School.

All you need to do is meet the entry requirements for your second course (postgraduate level) and we will automatically take 10% off of your tuition fees.

This can be received in addition to receiving a scholarship and will be applied to the second round of payments due.

Prizes

In addition to the fee based scholarships we offer, each course also has a number of memorial prizes available. Each prize is course specific and available to all students enrolled on that course in any given year.

We work very closely with the profession and other relevant bodies and organisations and as such can offer students on all courses a number of externally funded gifts and prizes. There are currently around 30 different prizes on offer varying in value from £50 up to £5,000.

Other prizes are available at The City Law School:
