The University of Law, Liverpool (GDL)

You’ll find the University of Law’s (ULaw) Liverpool campus housed within the University of Liverpool itself.

It’s “very close” to the city centre and has “great amenities”, shares one insider. Excellent transport connections is one such comfort and the hub is conveniently located just a ten-minute walk from the city’s mainline station, Lime Street.

ULaw’s latest centre opened its doors to a handful of Graduate Diploma in Law (GDL) students last September. “It’s interesting to be a part of the first cohort and see what it’s like,” says one GDL’er, “but there is some progress to be made.” Indeed, a new on-site development is in the works and will be ready to move into this September.

The course is “structured” with lectures (pre-recorded and online) as well as practical workshops to help those converting to law kick-start their careers. Course materials and textbooks are “what you’d expect from any good legal training provider” and resources are in plentiful supply.
