You can prepare several parts of your application in advance:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Find someone to be your academic reference. This person can be your teacher, principal, guidance counsellor, supervisor, or mentor who can confirm that you are eligible for this bursary. They should be aware of your grades, whether you are active in the school community, and whether you are interested in law and justice.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<li>Write a short essay (250 words max) on why you should be considered for this bursary. In this essay, you could also include the justice sector career you are interested in pursuing and demonstrate how your post-secondary program will help you achieve this goal.<br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\nAs there are many pathways to a career in law, we are open to consider various post-secondary programs. The important thing is for you to articulate why you are interested in a career in the justice sector, and how your post-secondary program will support that. For example, many applicants are entering a program with a social justice or government focus, in which understanding the law is a professional benefit. Sociology, political science, equity studies, psychology are also common majors.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>2.
