Students who have applied to study a taught Master\u2019s degree in Law at Kent can now also apply to be considered for a scholarship to cover their tuition fees.<\/p>\n
A limited number of scholarships are available which provide a full tuition fee waiver for home\/EU and overseas students. Overseas students can also apply for a scholarship that helps cover living expenses in addition to covering tuition costs.<\/p>\n
The taught Master\u2019s degree at Kent Law School is called the Kent LLM<\/a>, a programme which allows students to broaden and deepen their knowledge and understanding of law by specialising in one or more different areas.<\/p>\n Kent LLM students can tailor their studies to their particular needs and interests to obtain an LLM or Diploma in a single specialisation, in two specialisations jointly, or by choosing a broad range of modules in different areas of law to obtain a general LLM or Diploma in Law.<\/p>\n Overseas students have until Monday 16 March 2015 to apply for a choice of two different Taught Masters Overseas Scholarships<\/a>. Both scholarship programmes provide a full tuition waiver (\u00a312,890 in 2015\/16) but one also provides a generous award to cover living expenses (equivalent to \u00a313,863 in 2014\/15).<\/p>\n Home\/EU students should apply for the Taught Masters Home\/EU Scholarships<\/a> by Friday 8 May 2015. The scholarship will cover the cost of tuition fees at the full Home\/EU rate (\u00a35,100 in 2014\/15).<\/p>\n Scholarships are open to all applicants on the Kent LLM programme at the Canterbury campus and are awarded on the basis of academic excellence.<\/p>\n Students who are successful in the application will be considered Kent LLM Scholars and will have the opportunity to act as LLM Ambassadors<\/a>.<\/p>\n The Kent LLM attracts excellent law graduates from around the world and is also open to non-law graduates with an appropriate academic or professional background who wish to develop an advanced understanding of law in their field.<\/p>\n For a more personal insight into what it\u2019s like to study postgraduate law at Kent, you can read about the experiences of current students on the Kent LLM blog, Mastering Law<\/a>.<\/p>\n General Information about postgraduate funding is available on the Kent website at: www.kent.ac.uk\/courses\/funding\/postgraduate\/sources <\/a><\/p>\n Additional information about fees and funding for international student (from outside the EU) is available on the Kent website at: www.kent.ac.uk\/courses\/funding\/undergraduate\/international.html<\/a><\/p>\n
