About King’s College London and Scholarship
King’s College London is a public research university in London, England (often known as King’s or KCL). King’s was founded in 1829 by royal charter with the support of King George IV and the Duke of Wellington. King’s joined the University of London’s first two colleges in 1836. One of the country’s oldest universities is located there. The Institute of Psychiatry, the United Medical and Dental Schools of Guy’s and St. Thomas’ Hospitals, the Florence Nightingale School of Nursing and Midwifery, and Queen Elizabeth College and Chelsea College of Science and Technology were among the many institutions that merged with King’s in the latter half of the 20th century.
With new students entering King’s with an average of 171 UCAS points in 2018, the university has the 13th highest average undergraduate admission qualification of any in the UK. The institution offered admission to 66.7% of applicants in 2015, which was the seventh-lowest rate in the Russell Group.
Private education accounts for 24.4% of King’s undergraduate students, which ranks fifteenth among traditional British institutions. The institution had a gender-to-male ratio of 62:37 and a domicile breakdown of 67:12:20 UK:EU:non-EU students in the 2016–17 academic year.
Mr. Geraint Hughes, a partner at Clifford Chance and a law graduate of King’s College London, established the Tynybedw Law Bursary. Mr. Hughes would want to encourage certain students at King’s so they may start their legal professions since he cherishes his time spent studying there.
This scholarship is intended to give chosen students the chance to study law at King’s by providing them with money to cover a substantial percentage of the expense of attending college. The scholarships are intended to help applicants who require additional financial aid to complete their degree.
