“I accepted an o�er to study an LLM in International Commercial Law in the University of Bristol. I did not realise how well the Strathmore Law School had prepared me. For me to join an international institution and not feel intimidated or feel like it was di�erent to what I was used to. I thank Strathmore Law School for the great exposure and instilling in me the confidence I have today.”
