Bachelor of Civil Law - Batch of 2021

Excellent place to study.

Tips: A very academically oriented university, with a high focus on academic excellence. It is also a very student friendly and liberal campus. There are many merit based scholarships also available, the majority are partial fee waivers but some are comprehensive and also pay a stipend.

Likes (Public transportation): Oxford is very walkable and public transport friendly. There are also cheap and nice buses both inside Oxford and those connecting Oxford with London. There is good train connectivity with other cities like Reading and London as well. Good public transport.

Dislikes (Internships): I did not do an internship, but there are many internship opportunities available with London based firms and chambers for an Oxford lawyer/law student. However, considering the course is only 9 months, it may not make sense to do an internship in this time. Better to do a short internship immediately after the exams are over.

BCL at the University of Oxford - An intense and wholesome year full of new learning experiences.

Tips: Getting into the BCL at Oxford is a privilege since it's a highly reputed course that's very selective of its cohort. BCL, contrary to its name is neither a Bachelor's nor a Civil Law course. It is taught master's course for students from a common law background. The experience of studying at the university is unmatched, especially the tutorial system where a student gets a lot of one-on-one time with the professors. The shift from an Indian education system to this has been massive but positive and I would highly recommend doing this course. I was fortunate to have received two scholarships from the Oxford and Cambridge Society of India. The application process was simple and involved completing a form and an interview that took place in Delhi with a panel of about 5-6 members. Moving to the UK is a big cultural change for an Indian in terms of food, weather, culture and the education system. However, the University of Oxford is a very welcoming place and although it might take some time, you'll soon feel at home in the university. Overall. I am extremely satisfied with the course, college and the country.

Likes (Part time work): There are various academic and non-academic opportunities for part-time work available in the college as well as in the university. These could be examination invigilation, test correction, participation in different studies, research assistant to a professor, and volunteering, amongst others. These opportunities can also be availed in other colleges, if available. However, considering that BCL is an intense and short degree, managing part-time work along with academics becomes relatively difficult. Commitments of a shorter term should be preferred over long-term commitments. The average payout for part-time work at the university is usually the minimum wage rate in the UK.

Dislikes (Permanent Immigration): The economy in the UK right now is not at its best which makes it relatively difficult for immigrants to look for a sponsored job. While the graduate visa route does facilitate the process and help the students start the process, it does add two more years to the permanent settlement process. A degree from the University of Oxford, especially the BCL, will certainly help your chances of getting a job in the legal market, it is relatively easier if you come after work experience considering you'll need to separately qualify as a lawyer either solicitor or barrister in the UK. The BCL certainly did help me obtain a job in the country but having a graduate visa did increase my chances of getting the job itself since I won't require sponsorship for the initial two years. My chances of permanent settlement in this country are quite high and I would be open to the idea of permanent immigrating to this country.

Over hyped. But worth it if you get scholarship.

Tips: Make sure you know why you want to come to Oxford, most people come here due to the reputation and brand value but get disappointed when courses do not meet their academic expectations. Some teaching materials are very Eurocentric and white. Overall, a good place to network and make connections.

Likes (Safety): Safety is not an issue as everyone stays around the city or university campus. Streets are well lit and students can easily avail of university security services. All accommodation has a special fob-based entry, which is very difficult to break into. Overall safety is not an issue.

Dislikes (Value for money): Tuition fees and living expenses are very expensive. My law degree had one of the highest tuition fees. I could only attend because of my scholarship. The university application fee itself is around 8000 rupees and the university does not give any waivers.
