The Law & Society Qualification Year offers a focused first year of study with all the courses you need to gain entry to the Law and Society program upon completion. Honours Law & Society (LASO) is a highly competitive program. Although spaces are limited at this time, those who do not meet our entry requirements still have the option to pursue studies at York through our Law and Society Qualification Year program. This alternative has been created to accommodate student applicants with good academic standing.  

The Honours Law and Society Qualification Year is a pathway to entry into the Honours Law & Society program after your first year of study, conditional upon meeting the following requirements:  

• Successful completion of 24 credits, including LASO Qualification Year required courses;  
• achieving a final cumulative GPA of 5.0 (C+)  

What happens after my Qualification Year? 

Successful completion of your first year requirements will allow you entry into the Honours Law & Society program in your second year. 

What if I’m not successful in my Qualification Year? 

Should you not be successful in completing your Qualification Year requirements, the courses you do achieve credit in will allow you to pursue a number of other exciting law-focused programs in the Faculty of Liberal Arts & Professional Studies including: Public Policy and Administration, Political Science, Interdisciplinary Social Science, and Sociology. We will advise you of your options throughout your first year in order to take every step to ensure your success at ºÚÁϸ£ÀûÍø and beyond.
