Hey guys. I was wondering if anyone could give me any advice on transferring from the University of Ottawa to the University of Alberta. My undergrad GPA was a 3.95. My LSAT score was a 156. I was on the waitlist last year till after school started. My grades for the first semester of law school are in the B/B+ range. Any advice would be helpful! Thank you.

you'd probably be better off contacting the faculty, it is my understanding they still consider the statistics you applied to law school with undergrad/LSAT and your 1L grades and reasoning. Best of luck!

I think the pandemic had a lot to do with it! But my classmates do love Ottawa! It's a great school! Definitely PM if you'd like more info 🙂

Are you a 1L considering transferring?

That makes sense! I am from Alberta and so far rejected from Calgary so if I’m not in at U of A then ottawa is probably looking like my best option… so yeah currently deciding where to go for school
