[QUOTE="Jane Smith, post: 151047, member: 7481"] As said, best to ask the firm. The LCC on its own without masters is the PGDL my sons did a couple of years ago with BPP. It is the traditional law conversion course and with no masters. It ends in about Apriland in their case they started the then LPC that year in Spetember. If you are doing the masters with it then with BPP that carries on into the summer term and with some work over the summer holidays and most people only add the masters part because they need a post grad masters loan to fund the course. If you are signed up to the LCC masters with SQE at BPP - s course that might start Sept 2023 with the LCC to April, then masters in summer term, then Autumn term of year 2 you start the SQE1 course. For those self funding with a student loan the "LCC SQE Masters" is probably the one to choose as you only get one chance of a post grad student loan (not relevant to you as you are self funded). The masters loan is only about £12k so does not cover all the fees and there is SQE2 to do after SQE1 too. People on the first year LCC/PDGL will also be potential barristers too as it is the law conversion course. I don't think you do the masters part if sponsored, but firms might vary and they certainly varied on this during the LPC years. A good while back my daughter was sponsored on the earlier courses GDL/LPC and her firm didn't do the masters whereas some did. Her advice was the masters was a bit of extra work you don't need (unless you have to get the masters student loan). It is not really like a traditional masters you might do over a whole year after graduating in other subjects. This summary of City Consortium does not mention masters [URL]https://www.slaughterandmay.com/media/rs2jvepv/the-city-consortium-solicitor-training-programme.pdf[/URL] but I am just guessing you won't be doing it.
