The September (Fall) intake is generally the best option for master's courses in Canada, including law. This intake offers the widest range of programs, more scholarship opportunities, and aligns with the main academic year.

If you miss Fall deadlines, the January (Winter) intake is the next best choice, though fewer courses and scholarships may be available.

September or January: which intake can you still make?
