“I was interested in a course of study at King’s Inns for a long time. Attending the “Be a Law Student at King’s Inns for a Day” Open Day confirmed my decision to apply; the day brings the King’s–Inns experience and the study of law to life.
It is an excellent introduction, with engaging tutorials and discussions, and it will excite for the journey ahead. If you can attend, do.”
