Scholarships - Behind the scenes

Every year hundreds of would-be scholars apply for a scholarship at Gray's Inn to support their journey to a career at the Bar. How are these vital scholarships actually awarded? Is the process fair? And why does it take so long to hear back?
Lisa Danielle Bowles, a Gray's Inn Hale Scholar (in 2019), takes you behind the scenes to meet the people involved and find out how scholarship applications are decided.
Meet our Chair of Scholarships, David Forsdick QC, some of the barristers who shortlist applications and conduct interviews, and the Education staff working hard to process scholarships throughout the year.
