Transcripts for Exchange

[vrol99]

Hi, not sure if this topic has been covered before but I'm wondering if anyone here has applied to an Ontario law school after having gone on student exchange during their Bachelors? I'm specifically wondering if the law schools you applied to ask for a transcript from the local university? 

Also from my experience our grades on exchange weren't considered in the calculation of our CGPA.  As long as you passed the course you received the credits.  I'm wondering if this too would affect the OLSAS GPA calculation? 

Thank you!

Exchange grades don’t affect OLSAS GPA. However, you are required to submit your exchange transcript - signed, sealed and stamped (from what I recall). I did that by getting my host university to mail a copy to OLSAS. There should be more info on OLSAS website.
