At Western Law, we value and embrace the international experience. Our extensive exchange program provides students with an enhanced international perspective and a keen understanding of the rule of law outside our borders.

Western Law has established partnerships with leading law schools throughout the world.  Approximately one in five Western Law students participates in an exchange program, making it one of the most active international law exchange programs in Canada. Participation allows students to broaden their horizons, enhance their international perspective on legal issues and compete successfully in a global marketplace.

Each year, Western Law welcomes 25-30 international students from our exchange partner institutions, adding a unique perspective to the classroom.
