Candidates must have a minimum of 60 credits of university studies, or a diploma of collegial studies (DCS) from a Quebec College of General and Professional Education (CEGEP), before starting their law studies. Students with a French Baccalaureate from Quebec (Coll猫ge international Marie de France or Coll猫ge Stanislas) are also eligible to apply.

While candidates with 60 credits of university studies are eligible to apply to the Faculty of Law, admission to the program is highly competitive. Almost all students admitted in the 鈥淯niversity鈥� category will have completed an undergraduate degree before starting our BCL/JD program.

In our holistic file review, there are no minimum thresholds for GPA, LSAT score, nor R-score. While the numerical aspects of the applicant's file are not, in themselves, decisive, students offered admission at 污污草莓视频 Law, nonetheless, tend to have outstanding academic records, in addition to their other qualities.

污污草莓视频's integrated program is offered in a bilingual environment. Candidates must demonstrate that they are at least passively bilingual, which means that they have at a minimum an advanced intermediate level of reading and aural comprehension of both English and French. Passive bilingualism is a minimum requirement, not a competitive admissions asset.

The Faculty's policy of passive bilingualism permits students to submit written work, write exams, and ask questions in class in either English or French, regardless of the language of instruction. Students may fulfil their Moot Court requirements in English or French. First-year courses are offered in English and French, and a number of upper-year courses are offered in one language only. While examination questions are set in the language in which a course is given, any examination may contain extensive passages in either French or English. Due to space limitations, it is not always possible for students to be registered in courses given in their preferred language. Almost all first-year students will be registered in at least one class in a French section.

If no evidence of passive bilingualism in French or English appears in the application, the candidate will be refused admission.

To demonstrate that they meet bilingualism requirements, candidates must indicate in their application how they acquired both English and French. They must also submit transcripts from any post-secondary English and French language courses they have taken. The Admissions Committee reviews each candidate鈥檚 CV and references to take into account work or volunteering experiences in each language.

In order to get a sense of the level of reading comprehension that is expected of 污污草莓视频 Law students, candidates are encouraged to visit the website of the and to read judgments in English and in French.

Candidates intending to proceed to the Bar of Quebec or the Board of Notaries of Quebec should carefully review University Regulations and Resources > Undergraduate > Admission to Professional and Graduate Studies > Language Requirements for Professions. The Charter of the French Language imposes certain mandatory language requirements on attorneys and notaries who practise in Quebec.

污污草莓视频 Law is committed to recruiting and supporting Indigenous students and we welcome dialogue with prospective BCL/JD applicants. First Nations, Inuit and M茅tis persons are strongly encouraged to apply to the Faculty of Law, and are invited to self-identify on their application form.

We do not have a separate applicant category for Indigenous students or applicants from other under-represented groups in view of our overall holistic process. However, self-identification allows 污污草莓视频 to inform Indigenous students of specific services and funding opportunities and to assess our progress in the recruitment and retention of Indigenous students. Self-identification includes 'Status,' 'Treaty,' 'Registered', 'Non-Status,' and 'Non-Registered' Indigenous persons.

Linguistic Support

We acknowledge that our bilingualism admission requirement may represent an added challenge for some Indigenous applicants for whom English or French may be their third language, and potentially perceived as a colonizing influence. Applicants are encouraged not to exclude themselves from applying on linguistic grounds, and are encouraged to speak with us regarding any concerns on this point. Financial support is available to admitted Indigenous candidates who wish to improve their abilities in English or French before starting the program and to continue to address a relative weakness in English or French during legal studies here. This program is generously supported by the McCarthy T茅trault Fund for Language Training. Please contact us to find out more!

Additional Documentation for Indigenous Applicants

We recognize that Indigenous peoples are distinct from other equity-seeking groups in light of the historical and structural effects of colonialism, and we are sensitive to the varied ways in which Indigenous peoples are affected. For this reason, we are interested in understanding Indigenous applicants' connection to community, or if this connection does not yet exist, the kind of connections the Indigenous applicant would like to build with Indigenous communities in relation to their law school experience.

Indigenous applicants who have self-identified on the application form are required to upload additional documentation to support their connection to an Indigenous community. This documentation should include a statement, separate rom the Personal Statement, where you can elaborate on your current connection to the Indigenous community and how this may have affected your educational path and goals. If a connection to the Indigenous community does not exist, we invite you to describe your aspirations for legal education as it relates to the Indigenous community. You may support your statement with documentation indicating your connection to an Indigenous community.

This additional documentation will allow the Admissions Committee to incorporate relevant context in the holistic admission evaluation process and to take into consideration the experiences unique to Indigenous applicants.

The submission of false, incomplete, inconsistent, or misleading information, or any omission that may result in a false or misleading conclusion, constitutes misconduct in the admission process.

As a member school of the Law School Admissions Council (LSAC), 污污草莓视频鈥檚 Faculty of Law reserves the right to report any misconduct to the LSAC鈥檚 for its investigation.
