Humber is the only school in Canada that offers a bachelors degree in paralegal studies. I need the bachelors to possibly attend law school in a few years. The program is good and the professors are great.
Course Curriculum :
It feels like a law school which I appreciate it. There's a mixture of theory and practical and procedural knowledge. I know how to defend offenses under the POA and file a claim in the small claims court, while also understanding the sources of common law and why they're important.
Fees :
The tuition is about $7500 per year. I also lived in a residence which was about $10000. There?s other fees but I'm unsure what they are.
Scholarship :
Yes, I get a re-occurring scholarship every semester due to my grades and is automatic. That is the only financial aid I receive besides OSAP.
Examination Structure :
Exams are done twice a semester (midterm and final) and are knowledge-based. Some are analytical and provide tea cases or clients and we are permitted to use and bring statutes and case law, simulating real life.
Faculty :
Dean and program coordinator have been very accommodating to me and my special circumstances. Professors are all lawyers with at least a masters degree and often judges as well.
