Incredible Support
Canada Law from Abroad provided fantastic step-by-step guidance during my application process and helped me to take advantage of the opportunity to combine my education with international experience.
Opened Up Great Opportunities
I'm studying law at University of Kent and I just love it!
CLFA made applying to schools in the UK much easier and without them the process would have seemed impossible to do on my own. CLFA helped every step of the way and provided extremely helpful information, even after moving to England.
I would recommend CLFA to anyone thinking of studying in the UK because they really help make it much easier than just doing it on your own and studying in the UK is a great opportunity for anyone who is looking for an exciting opportunity to study law.
Without CLFA I don't think I would have applied to schools in the UK and I would have missed out on all of the great things here!
Thank you for all your help throughout everything!
Great Organization
Canada Law from Abroad is a great organization and helped me immensely while applying to law school in the United Kingdom.
My advisor helped me with all parts of the application process and made sure it was considered promptly by the admissions department.
CLFA also helped me with getting all parts of my Visa application completed, which can be a daunting process. I recommend anyone who is considering studying law overseas use Canada Law from Abroad.
I would definitely recommend studying at Exeter
After doing a lot of research I decided University of Exeter was for me because the population size of the city and the size of the university are similar to my previous university and hometown.
Describe your typical day at Exeter
I wake up and go to a BodySoc workout class. Then I go to the library to do work with my friends before heading to our seminar session for the day. In the evening I either relax in my accommodation with my flatmates or go to a social with the Canadian Law Society.
What are the best aspects of studying in your department?
The class size is small and we’re always together so we get to know everyone very well. The lecturers also all know us by name so we get to know them too!
What activities are you taking part in?
I am in the Body Society and in the Canadian Law Society and I am also part of the Wills Clinic with the Exeter Pro Bono Projects. I think that taking part in the Wills Clinic will give me practical professional experience for the future. I really like going to Bodysoc classes because they are great way to break up the day and take your mind off schoolwork.
What's the best things about living in Exeter and would you recommend studying at Exeter?
Everything is in walking distance. I would definitely recommend studying at Exeter.
The professors are extremely supportive
The university of Exeter has incredible teaching staff, some of which are leaders in their respected field. This made the university attractive as the modules I am interested in are taught by professors well-known within that particular field.
Describe your typical day at Exeter.
Quite a difficult question to answer, our schedules change from week-week. One week may be loaded with lectures and seminars others will only contain two days of contact. That said, a typical day would involve lectures either spread out or back to back depending on the modules you select. The average day in first/ second year was spent attending lectures, syndicates, and seminars. Aside from those scheduled contact hours most of the cohort was completing their reading list. Outside academia, social events are never in short supply. Every week a new event or evening plan would be created.
What are the best aspects of studying within your department?
The professors are extremely supportive, and truly do their best to provide the best experience for their students. Very impressed with the lecturers’ commitment to getting to know their students. I also liked the difficulty of the overall program.
How would you describe the vibe on campus?
Buzzing! The campus is brought to life by its students. Societies are very relevant, promoting their weekly or daily events. Forum hill, to my surprise, hosts food trucks from a variety of local restaurants every Friday which ends a difficult week nicely.
What activities are you taking part in? Which clubs/societies or facilities/activities do you enjoy the most?
Throughout my academic career I’ve been involved in numerous law societies and their events. These events consist of networking events, mooting, negotiation competitions, open days, dinners… etc. Currently, the president of the Canadian Law Society. Other activities I’ve been involved with outside of academia would just be intramural soccer.
Would you recommend Exeter to your friends?
Of course! Exeter has provided me with a great education, amazing friend group, and opportunities not available at other universities.
Has the University been supportive during your time here?
The lecturers in my program have always been supportive. They always interact and support student organized societies.
