Policy on Exchanges for Canadian Students
All Canadian students who satisfy the terms set out below may complete one semester (maximum equivalent Bond 60 credit points or 4 x 15 CP law electives) at a Canadian law school.
The dispensation provided in this policy is based on the unique position of Canadian law students in relation to qualification for admission to the legal profession in Canada.
The student must apply in writing to the Deputy Dean for this permission indicating which Canadian University Faculty of Law they have been accepted into and which subjects they plan to credit to their degree. Students should provide sufficient detail of the content of the subjects to permit the Law Faculty to determine their suitability.
This will require details of the hours of teaching; assessment; weeks of teaching and course outline.
The Law Faculty must consent to the subjects selected and credit that will be permitted for the successful completion of the subject.
A student must obtain at least a passing grade to obtain credit. A conceded pass will not be accepted.
The grade received by the student for any elective or compulsory subject will be recorded as UGP (ungraded pass) or UGF (ungraded fail).
We encourage students to undertake electives only. However, if they are able to demonstrate that, based on their program and the subjects required for completion, they need to undertake a compulsory subject or subjects for credit to their degree this may be permitted subject to the provisions below.
If the student seeks to credit a compulsory subject, the Law Faculty will need to satisfy itself that the subject will permit the student to comply with the relevant descriptors for the professional recognition of the degree.
On application for permission under this policy, a student will need to discuss with the Law Faculty and appropriate university representatives the necessity for a deferral of their studies at the Faculty of Law and the visa implications of this course of study.
Students must provide details of their transcript at the Canadian University before any credit can be provided.
This policy is subject to review at any time at the discretion of the Law Faculty.
