Student life at UCalgary Law

Our alumni always tell us that one of the great things about attending UCalgary Law is our small class sizes and our collegial environment. From your first day of law school, you will begin to develop friendships that will last the rest of your life. But we know that law school isn’t just about attending classes and writing factums, you want to have fun too.
