YLS goes Metropolitan
A unique opportunity for York Law School students to experience first-hand, across 3 days in London, what life is like within two of the UK's leading Law firms.
*DISCLOSURE*
For those who require accommodation, we expect prices for our selected Hostel to vary from £35-50 for both nights in London. However, if you have relatives who you would rather spend the night with as opposed to staying in a hostel then this is acceptable, although you will be expected to arrive punctually to any meeting places and times.
In terms of travel from York, we are allowing students to make their own way to London. We recommend students buy refundable train tickets (on Trainline from York to London Kings Cross) before knowing the outcome of their application due to ticket prices increasing nearer the time.
Please arrive in London on the 23d of November by 3pm where George and I will be waiting in St Pancras train station. We will end the day at 3pm on the 25th so we advise booking a 4:30pm train back to York.
Application open:
Friday 11th November 2022
Application Close:
Monday 14th November 2022 at 5pm
