"Studying law at the University of Bristol was challenging, but one of the most rewarding experiences I have ever had. The University pushes its students to do their best and to help them to further their futures both in law and non-law careers. I attribute a lot of my employability skills to the opportunities that the University has provided me, and I am forever grateful. My advice to prospective students would be to start developing your passions before you come to University. Not only will this help in an application, but it would also allow you to start participating in the many societies, modules, and activities that the University offers."

"Beyond the teaching that we have received in formal contact hours, one thing that has struck me as most inspiring has been the readiness of tutors to dispense fantastic advice both with regards to their subject and potential careers paths. For someone who has found it difficult to decide on their future, the opportunity to listen to the experienced insights of law school staff has been invaluable to me and I would urge others to make use of such opportunities during their time at Bristol."

The independence that Bristol has given me academically, reinforced a level of self-motivation and drive, in addition to taking responsibility for my own success and also enjoyment within my work and social life. My experience with the Law School has also assisted preparation for the future, through the significant careers opportunities in place.
