The educational prerequisite for admission to the Faculty of Law is successful completion of 60 units in a program of studies leading to a degree at a university in Alberta, or its equivalent. Courses to be considered must be completed prior to December 31 in the year in which the application is made. Normally, successful applicants will have completed at least one university degree.
When selecting the most promising students each year, the Admissions Committee considers a number of factors including: academic record, performance on the Law School Admission Test (LSAT), evidence of maturity, extra-curricular activities, work experience, community involvement, the applicant's statement of interest addressing the questions set out in the Faculty’s application, and references.
