Hi, guys, has anyone got an admission or financial offer from Osgoode?

No word yet for me at least. Somewhat surprised as I've heard from every other school I applied to. Perhaps the strike earlier this year has slowed the process.

Good luck!

Dear Beta,

I have not any decision results from the universities I applied till now. Considering the commercial center of Canada, I am wondering which is the best university to go in Toronto, Osgoode or UoT? Although Osgoode is better for its business law, considering the university reputation, I do not know whether it could compete with UoT? Thanks.

I actually only applied to Osgoode in Canada, as I did my first law degree at UofT. I think you'd do well going to either school for an LLM, although I suspect that Osgoode has a better funding system. UofT is in a much better location in the city, though, and has a very strong reputation.

I am glad for your quick response. Would you please kindly let me know your first law degree of UoT? Is it LLB? I am also desiring funding aid but I do not know whether Osgoode would provide it due to the financial crisis this year. According to your introduction, I think if I could get two offers from the above universities without money, I should go to UoT. Thanks.

Dear Beta,

I also applied Queens, do you know more about the comparison between Osgoode and Queens? I heard that there are lots of students in Osgoode LLM which is called big class but I am not sure about Queens.

Sorry, I don't know much about Queen's law program. Kingston is a nice small city, but that's about all I can say.

Hi

I just rec'd an offer for the thesis stream at Osgoode with at least a $10,000 scholarship. Apparently it is contingent on whether I am allocated an external scholarship worth more than the internal scholarship, at which the university will withdraw their funding but supplement an additional $4000.

Hope this helps. However, im unsure as to whether I will accept.

Dear Nibor,

I also got an offer of business law for international students from Osgoode but not any financial awards. I do not find the thesis or non-thesis stream selection in their LLM program and hope we are talking about the same project. I am also wondering whether to accept it.

Hi

Just to clarify, I meant research stream LLM. Which, I believe, is a different program altogether from the LLM in Business Law for international students.

Did you apply to U of T? and if so, did you receive a response?

Hope this helps.

Nibor,

Thanks for your clarification. Is your applied research stream LLM a part-time program? I only find one full-time LLM program from Osgoode which is just for International Students. BTW, I am also waiting for response of UoT.

No it is a full time program, and info can be found on the main website.

I just received a positive response for U of T, Have you rec'd yours?

What will you decide?

Hi, Nibor,

I am clear about Osgoode now. My offer is for International students which is course stream. BTW, I also received the offer from UoT but have not got the formal notice by post. I prefer to UoT. How about you?

hey all.am rohan bhandari from india..just wanna enquire that has anyone been accepted in osgoode for the LLM in international business program.

...

Hi Elle, just to clarify are you on the Osgoode professional LLM? It would be good to hear more about that programme - teaching, standards cf. to the LLB/JD, LLM courses in the UK etc.

Maybe I can PM you?
