KCL

I've received an offer for the undergraduate law course at Kings. Any insight into how KCL graduates fare in terms of Training Contracts from upper and middle-level law firms and the job market as a whole would be appreciated.

Very well generally.

The university is well attended by law firms at careers events both through the university and student societies.

The student law society receives a good level of sponsorship from those firms too.

Being geographically located within a mile of most of the firm’s offices also helps if firms run open evening or talks at their offices.

There will be plenty of KCL students who don’t secure TCs at these firms (same goes for any university though) but generally a good proportion of KCL law students/graduates will secure TCs at the type of firms you mention.

Have you seen the same for KCL Law Masters? They've just opened a PGDL programme and I'm wondering if that is a more impressive option for an international candidate who studied at a high ranking international university, but not a UK or Russell Group school.
