USask Law offers up to 50 Indigenous students the opportunity to complete a first-year property law course during spring/summer session.

Emphasis is placed on helping students develop skills needed for success in law school, in addition to learning substantive legal content.

About

  In 2026, Law 210.5 Property 1 will be instructed by Patricia Farnese.

  Course begins Monday, May 4, 2026 and ends Thursday, July 23, 2026 (final exam); no class Monday, May 18.
