A BSB spokesperson said: "A number of concerned students have
told us they have been experiencing technical difficulties with the Bar Student Application Service
(BARSAS). We appreciate this can be a stressful time for
applicants but the BSB has no responsibility for the design or
operation of the BARSAS, which is managed by the Bar Professional
Training Course providers. We suggest that individuals having
trouble using the service email [email protected] or
contact one of the Providers (it does not matter which one). Please
be aware that Providers manage their own application processes and
so any questions about extensions to the deadline should be
directed to them."
