CANADIAN LAWYER | McGill agrees to “JD” for common law degrees, in response to requests
The designation for common law degrees from McGill's Faculty of Law has been changed to JD from the previous LLB, effective immediately. According to a news release from the law school’s official website, starting from the spring 2020 convocation, graduates will receive two degrees: a Bachelor of Civil Law and a Juris Doctor. The program will now be called BCL/JD, and no longer BCL/LLB.
