Lincoln’s Inn

updated on 03 March 2025

Lincoln’s Inn offers more than £2 million each year in various scholarships, awards and prizes. Lincoln’s Inn has many awards and bursaries available. In 2024, 130 Bar course students were awarded scholarships. The value of each award is calculated through a means test based on the applicants’ disclosed financial resources and obligations and in 2024 the maximum award was £21,000. Students are recommended to apply for awards in the autumn term of their third year at university or the year prior to starting the GDL or Bar course. The Inn also allocates up to £65,000 in pupil awards and up to £183,500 in GDL scholarships. The majority of the scholarships are now applied for via the Inn’s online portal, but any questions about the process should be sent to the scholarships coordinator ([email protected]). Find out about the other scholarships on offer via the Inn’s website.
