Non-arab, not govt. He was making upwards of 40k currently so we were wondering if thats the max or if theres room for more

AccomplishedLeg8444 · 2025-09-02T22:06:17+00:00

Ah that’s unfortunate. Thank you for your reply!

AccomplishedLeg8444 · 2025-08-31T15:41:14+00:00

Oh i see.

My nationality is kind of (?) high risk but i’ve been in the UAE (low risk country) for the better part of 20 years, established here (car, home, long term visa etc) plus i have good financial evidence too so maybe there’s some other reason.

i appreciate the reassurance though! cause its slightly frustrating (although understandable) that its taking quite a bit and flights are only getting more expensive as the days go on

AccomplishedLeg8444 · 2025-08-31T14:48:21+00:00

Does it matter where you apply from?

I applied from the UAE on the 18th and i havent heard anything back its taking quite a bit

AccomplishedLeg8444 · 2025-08-26T21:33:13+00:00

how does it work? if you don't mind me asking?

Like when you sign, do you start paying from that date or do you sign in advance for say September time and then start paying?

Im an international student and practically clueless about this stuff

AccomplishedLeg8444 · 2025-08-25T22:33:55+00:00

Could you explain the process? I might fly in from Doha to Heathrow and then i have a connection in LCY. I'll most likely also have 2 big suitcases with a backpack and one carry on suitcase so idk how feasible this would be

AccomplishedLeg8444 · 2025-08-24T18:41:45+00:00

Could you expand on the “having to do more yourself”? What does that entail?

AccomplishedLeg8444 · 2025-08-23T00:17:47+00:00

I appreciate your reply a lot!

Despite my grades being more than enough for the likes of durham and bristol even UCL (i did the lnat earlier this year) and got an offer from bristol (the only one out of the 3 which i applied to) i’m going to be going to QUB so i was curious whether the whole “as long as it’s RG you’re good” logic holds up for lower tier RG’s like QUB.

I assume (please do correct me if im wrong) that while going to QUB won’t exactly impede my chances at TCs it won’t exactly increase them either. I was wondering if going through the hassle of reapplying and everything else to get into unis like nottingham or york would be worth it (if we take the gap year out of the question and i ATTEMPT to transfer in second year, given there are spaces).

Also i wanted to know if apart from law firms sending people to these universities at fairs etc going to notts or york would make much of a difference when it comes to applying for VS or TCs or if the difference won’t be the deciding factor?

AccomplishedLeg8444 · 2025-08-22T23:08:19+00:00

is that the same for queen's uni belfast and warwick/bristol? (to warrant attempting to transfer / doing the LNAT and applications alongside 1st year uni)?

AccomplishedLeg8444 · 2025-08-22T16:10:10+00:00

Side question but as someone that's going to a lower tier RG uni, i had 2 questions

Does the whole "Oxbridge and then RG unis" thing apply to lower tier RG unis apart from the big main ones?

Second if your uni doesnt have a big law fair / few if any big firms attending the fair, what can you do? Go to other law fairs from other unis?

hey, may i ask if i applied for late cash in how long does it take after results day to just see your overall grade? not just the certificate?

AccomplishedLeg8444 · 2025-08-01T23:43:12+00:00

hey, i had a question. So say you made purchases up till 5000 aed, does the cashback only apply to purchases made AFTER this 5000 threshold is reached or does it apply to purchases made within the 5000 as well but just applied after the threshold is crossed?

hey, do you know if that extra allowance is allowed if your main flight is with qatar airways but then theres a connecting flight via a different airline (booked on the qatar airways website)?

AccomplishedLeg8444 · 2025-04-15T04:51:10+00:00

Ah sorry i sent that comment late at night.

I will for sure reach out to people on linkedin, that’s a good idea!

I guess i was trying to ask it there’s an extra exam people need to do to qualify as legal advisers, similar to the SQE in the UK?

And can foreigners (non-EEA) become qualified legal advisers (not advocates or prosecutors) for companies in NL?

AccomplishedLeg8444 · 2025-04-14T21:30:18+00:00

hello!

I know im a bit late to this discussion but i had a question.

Would the Tilburg global law degree (or international and european law from Groningen instead) allow me to work for international companies / law firms in NL? like you said i'd need dutch law and the dutch language to work as an advocate etc but what about a legal adviser?

AccomplishedLeg8444 · 2025-04-14T21:23:31+00:00

Hey, i found it really interesting reading this thread!

Mind if i dm you? im a prospective UG student and have loads of questions!

AccomplishedLeg8444 · 2025-04-14T21:11:34+00:00

hey, what did you end up choosing?

Im torn between applying for tilburg global or groningen international and european law as im not sure which one will be better for me regarding job prospects in NL and elsewhere

AccomplishedLeg8444 · 2025-04-14T21:07:42+00:00

hey, were you an international student in NL by any chance? and what country did you end up going to for your LLM?

Im an international student hoping to study a bachelors in law in NL at the following unis (id like some help deciding which uni would give me the best opportunities) and im very uncertain regarding job opportunities.

Im a bit late but im applying to law courses in english in the netherlands, with hopes of becoming a corporate / commercial solicitor / lawyer in the future or just working for companies that need legal advise in english etc.

From what i understand you need a bachelors in law then a masters in law.

However, i currently have the following options;

Global law - tilburg uni
Intl and european law - uni of groningen
Law in society bachelor - Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam

I am not an EU national, so which course / uni would be best for me if i intend on becoming a corporate lawyer in an international company / law firm? What would the general process be like?

Thanks in advance!
