Common questions

When do law graduate scheme applications open?

Most open in September and October. The first law graduate scheme we tracked this cycle opened on 4 Sept 2026 (Norton Rose Fulbright), and the most recent on 2 Nov 2026 (Ashurst). Many review applications as they arrive, so the strongest position is to apply in the first weeks a role is open.

How many law graduate schemes are open right now?

14 are open now, from 5 employers. The count updates as roles open and close.

When do law graduate scheme applications close?

Deadlines for the roles open now run from 13 Nov 2026 to 3 Sept 2027, with half closing by 1 Jan 2027. 1 has a rolling deadline, which means applications are reviewed as they arrive and the role can close before its stated date.

Do law graduate schemes sponsor visas?

None of the 14 open roles currently state that they offer visa sponsorship. Many don't mention it either way, so check the employer's page before you apply.

I've missed the deadline. Is it worth applying?

Usually no. Once a deadline passes, the employer's application form closes. Roles with rolling deadlines can also close before their stated date, so the safest plan is to apply in the first few weeks a role is open. Each closed role keeps its page here with the date it opened, so you can plan for the next round.
