Edinburgh Law School is able to provide scholarships to current students due to the generous support from alumni, through gifts and legacies, and members of the School's Career Opportunities Programme.

Thanks to our supporters, this year we were able to provide scholarships to 25 students which allowed them to take part in a range of opportunities, such as attending summer schools, conferences and undertaking internships. Students felt that these activities allowed them to develop a range of skills, build new connections and prepare them for a career in law.
