Candidates must read through all sections in this Admissions Guide carefully before applying, as there are specific rules that must be followed for the creation and submission of supporting documents. Some of our guidelines for supporting documents have recently changed. As such, Candidates must read through the Admissions Guide carefully, especially if they are a re-applicant to the program.
Application to our law program requires preparation, planning and reflection. Candidates should apply for admission only if they will be able to start our program on the date they are applying for. International candidates must ensure they will have a valid status to study in Canada (i.e. student visa, permanent residency, etc.) before registration and should plan the timing of their application accordingly. Deferral requests are granted only in exceptional cases.
