Canadian applicants

We have an excellent reputation in Canada as a leading institution for legal education and have over 10 years of graduates practicing law in Canada. We have the largest number of Canadians in any UK law school including a thriving community of over 400 Canadian students annually and a network of over 900 Canadian alumni.

You'll be taught by Canadian nationals and you'll be able to take two Canadian Law modules (Foundations of Canadian Law and Canadian Constitutional Law) which help prepare you for the NCA exams. We also offer a generous package of scholarships. Many of our Canadian students return to Canada to practise law after studying with us.

The Leicester Canadian Law Society will help you adjust to living and studying with us. They offer a wide variety of opportunities to get involved in including legal competitions and pro bono activities.
