congrats
environmental law is a good idea... with all the concern over global warming you can prolly rake in a lot of money over the next 30 years. |

Trust me, I known the meaning of sacrifice. Every year, due to my commitment to school I've had to sacrifice more and more, most notably visiting all of my good friends in Toronto (and thereby partying as well). I know it's worth it though, and that's why I continue to do it. Friends and parties will always be there (and they have been extremely supportive might I add!) That's why I decided to spend last summer in Europe. I knew it was going to be my last chance to do it for many years, so I wanted to go with a big bang! I'll be in school next summer as well (my program goes through the summer after first year), and then at least the following two summers, articling.

Congratulations Lisa! A few more years and I'll be paying your bills!
What kind of law do you hope to practice? |
You probably missed this from the first page :)

Originally I planned on doing criminal law, but I don't think I could handle being a criminal defense lawyer. I still really enjoy criminal law though, and I have connections with the crown's office here - so I am looking into become a crown prosecutor.
The other area of law I'm beginning to get more and more interested in is environmental law. So that's an option.
Who knows though, my feelings may change completely when I get into the program and realize that I enjoy a different type more than these two. |

Congratz!
I have a friend just finishing up her 3rd year in Windsor Law. She loved it and made tonnes of friends.
If you have any questions or concerns, I would be happy to send them off to her :D
... in the meantime... GO PARTY! |
Is she doing the LLB program, or the JD/LLB program with Detroit Mercy too (I'm in that one). Glad to hear good things about the law school though. I'll keep you in mind if I have any questions or concerns. I appreciate that.
Once again....thank you everyone for the congratulations. I don't think I've ever been this happy about one of my accomplishments ever! |

Congrats, acceptance into law school is definitely something to be proud of. My sister is doing her first year at U of T Law, and surprisingly she’s managing her work and social life really well. Have never known anyone that attended Windsor Law so let us know how you like it. I’m looking at either U of T or McGill for law, but I’m still contemplating whether I should do my MA first.
Also environmental law is an excellent choice – definitely has a bright future.
Anyway, best of luck.
Ps. Law students are the heaviest drinkers out there!:happy2: |

Congrats Lisa. Seriously...this is amazing. I definately look up to how you managed to stay focused on your dreams without letting outside sources side track you from what you really want to do with you life (ex. partying, friends, relationships etc.) Congrats to you and I wish you all the best! |

Thanks Kelly. It's really nice to hear that from other people. It reassures me in knowing I'm doing the right thing. |

As many of you know, I've been working really hard to get into law school. It's been one of my dreams since high school. I completed my undergrad and am now currently working on my Master's, and just recently got my acceptance to law school for the fall!!
I applied to Windsor, Western, Osgoode, Ottawa and Queens. And further to the JD/LLB (joint btwn Canada & the US) programs at Windsor, Osgoode and Ottawa.
My top choice was to stay in Windsor b/c I already have a foundation here and have made a lot of connections. Plus it'll work out better for me for a number of other personal reasons.
Anyway, I found out I got my acceptance to the JD/LLB program in Windsor during reading week, but my OFFICIAL acceptance package came in the mail this week. As well, I found out yesterday that I got accepted to the LLB program at Windsor. Still waiting for the others (though I got into one of my top choices!)
I just found out today too that over 500 people apply to the JD/LLB program at Windsor, and they only select about 50 people! I'm SO excited!!!
Unfortunately I start August 18th :( So that means I have to work really hard to finish my thesis this summer before mid-August. No crazy party summer for me :( But who cares...I GOT INTO LAW SCHOOL!!
/bragging (sorry, I'm just really excited about my accomplishment) |
congrats to you=) |
