| The Diversity Access Scheme aims to help talented, committed people overcome obstacles to becoming a solicitor. The obstacles may be because of a disability, or because of social, educational, financial or family circumstances.
To achieve this aim, the Law Society has developed two initiatives with the solicitors’ profession:
- vacation placement scheme
- scholarship scheme
We also plan to launch a mentoring scheme to put students in touch with mentors.
The deadline for receipt of Diversity Access Scheme scholarship applications for the academic year 2005/6 has passed. The application process normally begins each year in February.
