Obtain a Letter of Permission to Pursue a Placement You Arrange Yourself
The Letter of Permission (LOP) program lets students arrange their own international study experience at an approved law school. It’s important to note that if you choose this option, you pay tuition at the host institution — not at Osgoode – and are not eligible for Osgoode bursaries or for the Ontario Students Assistance Program (OSAP).
