Queen's To Change LL.B. Degree To J.D.

It is looking as though Queen's will become the second Canadian law school to change its degree from the LL.B. (Bachelor of Laws) to the J.D. (Juris Doctor). The University of Toronto was the first Canadian law school to do this. It is also looking like the University of British Columbia will be the third.

It is important to note that neither the Queen's nor the University of Toronto J.D. is ABA (American Bar Association) approved.
