Do you need to tell your sponsor firm your degree results?

Hi everyone,

I have a TC with a US law firm. They have a small intake. My offer letter didn’t give any stipulated requirements relating to my undergraduate degree.

I am going to start the GDL. The provider says on its website that it requires a 2.1 degree, but they have inducted me into the programme without asking for any proof etc.

I got my undergrad results the other day, so I know that if asked to show that I got a 2.1 or above, that I can.

Is it standard practice to email your undergraduate results over to your sponsor firm? I was slightly under the impression that it was a ‘given’ that their future trainees would get good enough results.

You’ll probably need to provide it when you go through vetting processes.

If you have got a 2.1 or above, no need to worry about it to update the firm until they ask you to.
