Students may apply for admission to one of the Inns of Court from the second year of their Law Degree onwards, but must be admitted before they can be registered on and attend a Bar Professional Training Course (BPTC). Applications for admission must to be submitted by the end of the May immediately preceding the start of BPTC.

Application to Middle Temple is a straight forward process. The Application Form must be completed, signed, and returned to the Treasury Office.

Once admitted to the Inn, you will be allocated a practising member of the Inn as a sponsor, who can assist and advise you in practical matters such as applying for pupillage.

Please make sure that you fully complete all the forms, remembering to sign and date them. A General Guide for Students has been written to give a better idea of how the Inn works and this will be sent to you on admission.
