The Dickson Poon School of Law at King’s College London has launched the largest ever scholarship programme for law in the UK and Europe, following a £20m gift from the school’s benefactor, Hong Kong businessman Dickson Poon (pictured).

Eighty law scholarships will be available in 2013, with up to 75 covering all or part of the fees available to undergraduates enrolling in 2013 and up to five worth £90,000 each for post graduate PhD students. The scholarships will not be means tested.
