After the success of our virtual law-fair-style Diploma fairs, we are once again running the event online in 2025. This fair will be focused on the Diploma application process and providers for 2025. 

If you are considering applying to the Diploma it is essential that you understand the application and admissions process for each university you want to apply to before you submit your application. Attending this session will enable you to do that.

This event will be split throughout the day so you can hear from each of the 6 university providers. Note that you can use your personalised Zoom link you receive when you sign up to join any sessions throughout the day, so you can drop in and out as it suits you.

Read our guidance on the Diploma process:
