‘I am Elle Tait. I applied to the uniq Summer School
during my sixth form because I wanted to be sure that
a law degree was for me.
At Oxford, I was fortunate enough to be supported
with a bursary during my undergraduate degree.
Most of my time as a law student was spent reading
and going to tutorials but there’s so much more to get
involved with, which the bursary allowed me to do.
My main passion was journalism and I became deputy
editor of the student newspaper.’
