"At college, I studied Sciences but after finishing my A-Levels, I decided to go a different route and study law. As I had no experience in studying law, I decided to study a foundation course to gain a bit more knowledge around the subject. That was when I came across BPP School of Foundation and English Language Studies. They offered me a three month foundation programme as a pathway to the LLB course.” Lola Ileyemi, Pathway to Higher Education Certificate in Legal Studies
