Humber college is the only school that offers a bachelor program for paralegal studies! I wanted to get a degree so I could have the potential to carry on to law school but also get a substantial legal education.
Course Curriculum
My course curriculum is of a very high standard to match a legal education that is similar to the first years of law school! Humber employs professionals from the industry in their faculty and ensures students receive a quality education.
Internship
Yes, the program offers an internship for 420 hours, this internship was a great hands-on experience in the paralegal field and helped me to figure out what I would like to pursue post-graduation. The length of the internship was also a very good fit.
Fees
Tuition was paid by semester, there was a deposit amount and then final payment. Other fees included textbooks and school materials. Many courses requires a textbook but this text will be useful in future practice so is worth the fee.
Examination Structure
The exams are usually well structured and easy to prepare for, or open book. You are not tested on memorization but rather the application of your knowledge- that you should have acquired. The exams are twice a semester and always have review periods.
Faculty
The college faculty is one of a kind, Humber employs professionals of a very high standard who are either retired or currently working in the Canadian Legal system! This ensures that students are taught with quality and currency.
