Clearing matches applicants to university places that are yet to be filled. It’s available to anyone who has made a UCAS Undergraduate application and doesn’t hold any offers. We open for Clearing on 5 July. Until then, we have plenty of useful resources available to offer advice and support, allowing you to prepare for the process and to help you make the best decisions for your future.

You’ll enjoy a range of interactive and lively activities both inside and outside of the classroom. Business games, mock trials and negotiation competitions are just some of the practical exercises you’ll take part in to develop your legal skills. In your spare time, you can join a range of clubs and societies, sports teams and fundraising committees, or even start your own, as well as enjoying the more relaxed side of student social life.

University of Law: Student Life.

There are a broad range of clubs and societies across each of our campuses managed by the Student Association. Here is just an example of some of the clubs that we’ve run recently:

  • Football
  • Netball
  • Debating Society
  • Women’s Network
  • International Society
  • Yoga
  • LGBT+ in Law
  • Cocktail Society
  • Adventure Sports Club
  • Charities Society
  • Cake Club
  • Dungeons and Dragons

You can also set up your own club or society through the Student Association, so if you have a hobby or passion that you’d like to involve others in you can talk to your Student Association representatives about how to get it started.

We want you to feel fully supported whilst studying with us. In the University of Law Student Support Service, you will find the Library service, Disability Support and Inclusion team, Counselling service, and Welfare team.

Our Employability Service is also with you every step of the way – from pre-application, during study and as alumni. It is part of our mission to provide excellent employability outcomes for our students; 92% of our full-time UK LLB students graduating in 2017 secured employment or further study within six months of successfully completing their course.

Apprenticeships offer employers and individuals a range of tailored options, all of which develop individuals’ wider business skills as well as their legal and job-specific knowledge. It is now possible for talented future lawyers to take an apprenticeship route all the way from leaving school to qualification as a solicitor, without incurring any student debt.
