Will my two years of work experience as an external legal assistant be considered for my application if I have a work experience letter in UK/Netherlands for a Master's?

Yes, your two years of work experience as an external legal assistant can be considered for your Master's application in the Netherlands and the UK, as long as you have a detailed work experience letter. The letter should clearly state your role, responsibilities, employment duration, and be on official letterhead with contact details.

Universities and visa officers value documented, relevant experience - especially when it aligns with your law background. Requirements may vary by program, so ensure your experience matches the specific admission criteria of each university.
