Testimonials from past Scholars

Isabel Trinca
Studying the BCL at the University of Oxford has so far been an unparalleled opportunity to learn from the world’s best academics and acquire great depth of knowledge in my chosen subjects. I am thoroughly enjoying my subjects and I am grateful for the support of the BFSLA in getting here and look forward to the rest of my time in Oxford.

Jordan Phoustanis
I am very grateful to have received the BFSLA Scholarship to read the Bachelor of Civil Law at Oxford University in 2022/23. Receipt of the scholarship helped me achieve my long-held ambition of pursuing postgraduate study abroad. For the last nine months I have been immersing myself in the study of legal theory and doctrine at one of the most historically significant and intellectually vibrant law schools in the common law world. I have benefited greatly from the unique pedagogical method and dedication of eminent legal scholars (both from Oxford and abroad), and have embraced the opportunity to immerse myself in the ‘authentic Oxford experience’. I encourage others considering postgraduate study abroad to apply for the BFSLA Scholarship.
