Schulich School of Law

Give to the Schulich School of Law

At the Schulich School of Law, we believe in the Weldon Tradition of unselfish public service, giving back and making the world a better place. Our students are future changemakers with the skills and knowledge to develop, advocate for, and implement policy that shapes the lives of individuals and communities. Our students use their education to tackle real-world issues and serve their communities directly through hands-on learning opportunities like our clinics and internships.

Top funding priorities

Area of Greatest Impact

Gifts to the Schulich School of Law Area of Greatest Impact help to provide a robust network of support that sustains law students throughout their years of study. This fund allows us to award scholarships and bursaries that are life changing for students who might not otherwise get to attend law school. It also facilitates clinical learning and internship experiences which provide an invaluable chance to hone advocacy skills and apply legal knowledge in the real world.

Clinical & experiential learning for students

Your support of clinical and experiential learning provides our students with unique opportunities to gain practical experience in the legal field before graduating. With your gift, our students can pursue internship opportunities that allow them to explore career paths and gain experience free from financial stress. Our Dalhousie Legal Aid and Technology & Innovation Clinics provide students with excellent experience working with clients and the community.
