Here's why you should apply

We're committed to supporting talented young people who have the potential to benefit from and contribute to the legal profession. Our aim is to ensure that if you have drive and talent, money will not be a barrier to becoming a solicitor in Scotland. We will give priority to individuals from less-advantaged backgrounds. So your social and economic situation will be taken into consideration if you apply for a bursary.
