Review of Overseas Scheduled Universities

The Singapore Institute of Legal Education has commenced the 2nd review of the list of overseas scheduled universities (“OSUs”), whose law degrees are recognised in Singapore under the Legal Profession (Qualified Persons) Rules (the “QP Rules”).

The Institute will be working with appropriate agencies and other stakeholders, in the coming months, to assess the scope of and undertake the OSU review with a view to making recommendations to the Ministry of Law.

The current list of OSUs and related legislation continue to apply, and will continue to apply until such time that any changes are formally given effect.

As with the 1st review of the list of OSUs, any revisions to the list of OSUs will not have retrospective effect.
