AAP Mentoring Scheme

The York Law Society annual ‘Accelerated Application Programme’ (AAP) Mentoring Scheme provides students with the opportunity to further their careers, both through advice from us and workshops with top law firms.

We work closely with over 30 firms, chambers and organisations to cater to all career aspirations: whether that is corporate law, the Bar, family law or working with NGOs!

Our first aim for this academic year is to continue the society’s AAP scheme to allow students to be mentored by other students, guiding them through various application programmes, whether it be for training contracts, vacation schemes or first-year programmes. As part of the programme, your careers secretaries will be running workshops to help improve your chances of success in the law firm application processes. 

More information about the York 2024/25 AAP Programme will be released on our website soon…
