Welcome to UBC Faculty of Law!

Hi Graduating Class of 2015,

Congratulations on your acceptance to UBC Law! My name is Aletha and I am the Orientation Coordinator for the incoming class of 2012.

This blog will serve as a source of information on UBC Law’s first year structure, faculty resources, clubs, teams and volunteer activities. I will do my best to keep you filled in on what to expect during your first year at UBC Law. If you are wondering what to do to prepare yourself for the coming year, the best advice I can give you is to enjoy the summer and take some time to relax! You will thank yourself later; it will be a big year!

There are several ways to stay up to date on what’s planned for your Orientation Week, which will run from August 28^th to August 31^st:

1.   Orientation Week Blog: I will be updating this blog throughout the summer with information about Orientation Week, what first year law is like, the different opportunities available at UBC Law, and Vancouver;

2.   Emails: The Admissions Office will send out emails with any important information;

3.   Orientation Week Guide: The Orientation Week Guide will contain a lot of helpful information. Currently, it is still under construction, but I will add links throughout the summer;

4.    Facebook: Join the UBC Law 2015 Facebook page to see who is in the incoming class.

Feel free to email me at orientation@law.ubc.ca if you have any questions, concerns or ideas for future blog posts.

I look forward to meeting all of you!

-Aletha
