SQE Scholarships
BARBRI Bridges is a social mobility fund developed to help increase diversity, inclusion and accessibility in the legal sector. We work with law firms, charities and universities to achieve our goal and have so far committed over £120,000 across the industry.
Our BARBRI scholarship programme is part of this initiative aiming to offer you a chance at SQE success, whatever your personal circumstances.
If you’re interested in applying for an SQE scholarship, we have four different types of SQE scholarships available: our Public Sector, Essay Competition, 1st Class Honours and Humanitarian Scholarship. Each of these is designed to provide the legal industry professionals of the future with a route to successfully achieving their Solicitors Qualifying Exam (SQE).
All the scholarship options are only applicable for the BARBRI SQE1 Prep course.
