This category includes applicants who, at time of registration, will have completed more than 30 credits in addition to a Diploma of College Studies (DCS).

While candidates who have completed 60 credits are eligible to apply to the B.C.L./J.D. program, applicants who are not on track to complete their degree before starting their law studies are unlikely to be offered admission.

Mature applicants are those who have interrupted their formal education for a minimum of five years.

It does not have to be five consecutive years out of school. Applicants who qualify as mature will be automatically placed in this category based on the academic history they have provided in the application form.

There is no predetermined number of Mature candidates admitted in a given year. Mature applicants are evaluated according to the same criteria and standards of excellence as any other applicant, with particular attention being paid to professional activities. Mature applicants must meet the educational requirements, set for all candidates, as outlined in the Education requirements page.

Applicants must submit a 750-word essay referred to as a Personal Statement.

What is the purpose of the Personal Statement?

The Personal Statement is your moment to showcase the unique aspects of your motivations, your background, and your personality that make you a compelling candidate for our program.

The 成人VR视频 Committee relies on the Personal Statement to understand the factors that motivate you to pursue a legal education, the particular meaning that the study of law holds for you, and the reasons for your interest in our program. In addition, your Personal Statement shows the 成人VR视频 Committee your writing style, your ability to present your ideas in English and/or French, and your maturity and judgment as shown through your writing.

What is the 成人VR视频 Committee looking for in reading your Personal Statement?

The 成人VR视频 Committee is interested in hearing why you want to study law, why you are interested in 成人VR视频 in particular, and what you will bring to our learning community. The Committee looks for indicators of intellectual curiosity, community engagement, political/social insight, leadership skills, ability to work with others, openness to diversity (cultural, linguistic, and otherwise), maturity, judgment, and potential for development through opportunity or adversity.

We strongly encourage applicants belonging to an equity-deserving group to include information in their Personal Statements on how their personal circumstances, life experience, work, community involvement, and extra-curricular activities relate to their desire and preparation to study law at 成人VR视频.

The Personal Statement must be a product of your own reflection. We truly value a wide range of backgrounds, identities, and future aspirations. Whether you wish to become a practising lawyer or you have other ideas about your career path following a legal education, your application, and specifically your Personal Statement, should show thoughtful consideration of your reasons for studying law, and at our Faculty in particular.

Practical tips

Read our 成人VR视频 Policy to get a sense of what we look for in our students.

Before writing, reflect critically on your motivations, your interests, and your convictions, and their connection to our program. Do some research on our law faculty and others. Law faculties all tend to have their own strengths and particularities. Doing some research may help you identify and articulate why you are interested in studying at 成人VR视频 in particular.

The Personal Statement should not be used as a vehicle for narrating or repeating your CV. You have a limited amount of writing space; make it count. Do not repeat aspects of your candidacy that the Committee will see in other documents unless these aspects are directly linked to your interest in studying law at 成人VR视频. Be authentic. Be yourself. Don't be afraid to be original, but be careful not to sacrifice substance.

You may submit your Personal Statement in English, French, or both. It is important that you write the statement in whatever of the two language(s) you are most comfortable expressing yourself. It is not recommended to use the Personal Statement as a way to establish your bilingualism unless you are very comfortable expressing yourself in the other language.

Importantly, make sure that your Personal Statement follows our formatting guidelines (see below) and that it has grammatical integrity. Only one submission of the Personal Statement is accepted so it is important to submit the Personal Statement in its final version of both format and substance. Indigenous applicants are invited to submit additional documentation in addition to the Personal Statement. Please see the Indigenous Applicants page for more information.

Format

The format of the Personal Statement must adhere to the following basic characteristics:

• Maximum of 750 words (include a word count at the end of your Personal Statement).
• Indicate your name and 成人VR视频 ID (found in the acknowledgment notice) at the top right corner of all pages.
• Candidates who have applied to the Faculty in the past must submit a new Personal Statement with any new application. Re-applicants who make no substantive changes to their Personal Statement from one application to the next are unlikely to be viewed as competitive.

If an applicant has experienced any serious medical or personal difficulty(ies) that鈥痟ave had an impact on their academic performance as demonstrated in their official transcripts, for a defined period of time (including the manner in which they have completed their degree requirements), they may complete an extenuating circumstances form to support their application.

The review of requests鈥痜or consideration of extenuating circumstances by the 成人VR视频 Office will be guided by the following factors:鈥�

1. The credibility of the circumstances, including鈥痵upporting official or objective documentation provided;
2. The time-frame of the circumstances (defined start and end dates);
3. The connection between the鈥痙escribed circumstances and the applicant鈥檚 academic performance (specific semesters or courses which were affected).

Where an applicant鈥檚 circumstances are determined to be credible, circumscribed in time, and having had an impact on academic performance, the 成人VR视频 Office will determine what鈥攊f any鈥攁djustments can be made to the overall academic evaluation in light of the circumstances.鈥� The standard adjustment could be鈥�(but is not limited to) assessing academic performance using available records, but excluding those elements affected by the extenuating circumstances. Whether and to what extent adjustments will be made is at the discretion of the Office and its decisions in this regard are final.

Applicants are required to submit a CV highlighting:

• academic background and achievements;
• work experience;
• volunteer and community work;
• extracurricular activities;
• sports, hobbies, and other significant interests; and
• language skills.

The CV assists the 成人VR视频 Committee in its assessment of a candidate's academic strength, depth of involvement in extra-curricular activities, leadership, and time management skills.

Re-application: Candidates who have applied to the Faculty of Law in previous years are required to submit an updated CV.

Two (2) references are required. The 成人VR视频 Committee does not accept additional references.

Applicants must indicate the two chosen referees in the first and second fields of the Referee Information section of the online application. Only forms received from the two chosen referees will be inserted in the candidate's file. If you wish to make a referee substitution, you may do so until the deadline to submit Supporting Documents. In this case, please follow the instructions in the Applicant Portal.

Those applying under the optional category for Indigenous Applicants should visit the Indigenous Applicant page for more information about selecting references.

Applicants who are students, or who have recently completed programs of study, are expected to provide academic references from current or recent professors or teachers who are familiar with their work. Applicants in the CEGEP and Quebec French Baccalaureate (Coll猫ge international Marie de France and Coll猫ge Stanislas) category are expected to submit two references from CEGEP or college professors.

Applicants who are unable to obtain academic references because they are no longer students should submit references from individuals who are well placed to evaluate the applicant's academic abilities such as critical reading, research, and writing; these may be professional references, but ought to be from a person who is in a supervisory position vis-脿-vis the applicant.

It is highly recommended that candidates also review the Instructions and form for referees to think of referees who might best be able to respond to the questions asked.

Personal references are not helpful.

Applicants are not required to take the LSAT. However, if a candidate has taken or will be taking the LSAT, the score will be considered. Applicants who have taken or will be taking the test must report the date(s) of sitting(s) and provide their LSAT identification number in the appropriate places on the application. They must do so regardless of whether the LSAT may, in their own estimation, strengthen or weaken their candidacy.
