Admission to Combined Programs

Students who satisfy the entry requirements may enter the combined programs directly in Year 1. Alternatively, students may apply via UAC to "transfer" into a combined law degree after the completion of at least one year of full time tertiary study. Admission is based on a combination of UAI score and tertiary results. The maximum credit (advanced standing) granted to transfer students is 48 units of credit (equivalent to 1 year).

Program Transfers: Students enrolled in combined law programs who discover they have made a wrong choice of program should consult a student advisor in the School of Law as soon as possible. It is sometimes possible to effect changes without seriously affecting progress in the new program; the earlier the change can be made, the easier the transition.
