Honest Review of the University of Law (UK) – Especially for Pakistani ApplicantsI had applied to the University of Law for a top-up course with a High Pass qualification and an IELTS score of 8.5 in speaking and 6.5 overall. My academic and language profile fully met their requirements, and I initially received an offer.I later appeared for a pre-CAS interview from Pakistan with Mr. Farhan (Country Representative) and the Pakistani admissions team. During the process, Mr. Salman, one of their team members, assured me that I was good to go and could proceed to record my interview on CAS Shield. I completed the interview, submitted all required documents, and my CAS progress reached 34%.However, things took an unprofessional turn. My CAS progress was suddenly stopped not because of any academic or procedural issue, but apparently due to personal bias and internal politics. I had an unrelated personal disagreement with an assistant admissions manager from a consultancy, who happened to have close ties with Mr. Farhan Asim. It became clear that these internal relationships mattered more to them than a student’s merit or future.This experience exposed a deeply unprofessional and biased attitude within the University of Law’s Pakistan admissions network. Instead of maintaining transparency and fairness, they appear to give preference to personal connections and internal favoritism over genuine, deserving students.I strongly advise Pakistani students to think twice before applying to the University of Law. Their local admissions handling is unreliable, unprofessional, and lacks accountability. They do not value students’ time, effort, or aspirations, and their process can be easily influenced by personal relationships rather than merit or integrity.
