King's College London Reputation

<p>I'm in Canadian high school, considering studying law in the UK. I've been offered a spot at KCL with a 27000 pound scholarship, one of the full Dickson Poon ones (that's over three years, not annually),</p>

<p>I've also been given offers to all the top Canadian business schools. I applied to business in Canada as law is purely a graduate study in North America.</p>

<p>What I'm trying to assess is the strength of KCL's reputation. I'm trying not to be a "reputation whore" but since a foreign law degree is not particularly usefully, a school with prestige is kind of important.</p>

<p>So, what do you all thing of KCL? What are some schools in North America that you feel it is comparable to?</p>

<p>Can you practice as a lawyer in Canada with a law degree from a British university? If so, then grab the scholarship from King’s. </p>

<p>King’s has a pretty decent reputation in the UK. It’s generally considered a top 25 university (not a top 10-ish though). It is particularly strong in medicine, the para-medical programs and law. </p>

<p>That said, I’d take King’s offer if I don’t have any offer from McGill, UBC or U of Toronto. </p>

<p>Not really. You can do the NCA process to practice, but then getting articling spots in next to impossible.</p>

<p>I have offers to all those schools, plus Queen’s Commerce, which is considered the best business program in Canada, with the possible exception of Ivey at Western, but that’s an argument for another page.</p>
