All applicants who are accepted for admission to any taught LLM or MSc programmes offered by the School (including Online Learning programmes) starting in the 2026-2027 academic year.

Criteria

The award will be made on the basis of academic merit and the strength of a personal statement. Within your personal statement please include:

• the specific elements of the LLM or MSc programme that attracted you to the University of Edinburgh and why these are meaningful to you; and
• explain how successful completion of this programme will benefit your career, personal development and / or enable you to contribute to your community/region or country?
