Students hoping to enroll in Lakehead University's new law school don't have much time left to apply. 

The deadline for the first class in 2013 is fast approaching. Lakehead University will be establishing the first law degree program in Northern Ontario next September.  The Program will accept 55 students, and will have a strong focus on Aboriginal Law, and legal issues relating to Natural Resource Management. 

The program is accepting applications until Nov. 1, and Law School Dean Lee Steusser is pushing that deadline.

Stuesser said they've had only a few applications come in so far, but he's confident the demand is out there. 

This will be the first new law school in Ontario in over 40 years.

It will be a hard nut to crack for a few reasons.
One, being a brand spanking new law school employers in major centres like Toronto, Vancouver and Calgary will not know the true reputation the law school will have.
Plus if the LU law school is going to focus more on Aboriginal issues and Natural Resources, someone should think twice if they are gonna apply here and think they are gonna work at a high rise law firm in New York City.

What is the difference between Aboriginal Law and Non Aboriginal?

yes we are unique in every way..if we don't attract enough students then we should sent Council there once a week to learn a few things about the right of the average citizen.
