I recently graduated from a Nigerian University with a good 2:2 (CGPA of 3.3 on a 5 points scale). I want to know the possibilty of getting a scholarship or grant (either partial or full) if admitted for an LLM in a UK university. I would appreciate suggestions as to possible schools that I stand a chance to get it from.
Thanks.
LLM scholarship or grant with a 2:2?

Maybe start here?

In general, you should contact the financial aid departments for the programs you are interested in so they can help you determine your eligibility for funding. Some scholarships will only be available to you if you are pursuing specific research, or have a particular background.
I've heard that King's College London has a Nigerian Law Scholars fund, but there's usually only one scholarship available per year, so it's probably pretty competitive.

Thanks a lot for your advice. Due to the fact that virtually all the scholarships/grants are based on strong previous academic records, I get discouraged to apply for the funding in view of my not-so-attractive CGPA. Do I stand a chance at all?
