The University of Law has announced that it is making a new postgraduate loan of £10,000 available to its LLM and LPC students, funded via the Student Loans Company.
Launched as part of The University of Law’s new “100% for You” scheme (see also the “100% Employment Promise”), the loan is available to applicants enrolling on the postgraduate programmes from September 2016. The loan is released directly to students and can be used to help cover fees, maintenance costs or any other costs, at their discretion. The loan is available exclusively to British and EU nationals resident in the United Kingdom, and is repayable once graduates are earning over £21,000 per year.
Dr Stelios Platis, managing director at The University of Law, said: “Many graduates dream of a successful career in the legal sector but are often not able to pursue their goals for lack of funding. At The University of Law, we’re committed to removing those entry barriers and enabling bright and ambitious young people from the most diverse backgrounds to enter the profession.”
Further details of eligibility requirements, interest rates and other key terms and conditions are available on the gov.uk website.
