Blog Submissions
Unlike our Annual Journal, the ELR blog features shorter pieces of work, yet still maintains the same level of quality writing. These are generally pieces of work completed as part of either an undergraudate or postgraduate degree which have scored 74 or higher, as graded by the University of Exeter. If you wish to have work featured, please do not hesitate to contact us at exeterlawreview@gmail.com
