LAW SCHOOLS

There are 22 law schools and departments across Canada: six in the Western Region, eight in Ontario, five in Quebec and three in the Atlantic Region. Collectively, they offer a variety of programs such as undergraduate studies in law, a professional degree leading to the practice of law, graduate studies in law, and various joint programs. Some offer their programs in English only, others in French only, while others offer partially or fully bilingual programs. To learn more about the programs and admission criteria of the various law schools, use the map of Canada below. Each red square represents a law school or department and will link you to its Web site. Alternatively, click on the name of a university listed on the right.

Twenty-one of the law schools and departments in Canada offer a professional degree in one or both of Canada's two systems of law. These systems are the "Common Law" derived from the British legal system and the "Civil Law" inspired from French law. Common Law is the system of law in place in all of Canada's provinces and territories other than Quebec. Civil Law regulates the private law of Quebec.
