Scholarships & Financial Aid

Roughly split between merit and need, McGill's awards range from smaller entrance scholarships up to the McCall MacBain Scholarship, often described as Canada's answer to the Rhodes, which covers full tuition plus a living stipend. Other notable options include the Major Entrance Scholarship for undergraduates and the Quebec Merit Scholarship for international postgraduate and research students.

Campus & Facilities

The university runs primarily out of its Downtown Montreal campus, with the Macdonald Campus in Sainte-Anne-de-Bellevue serving as a second, agriculture-focused site about 30 minutes away by shuttle. Students have access to roughly 250 clubs and societies, a well-equipped athletics and fitness complex, several dining halls and cafes, and a mix of dormitory-style and shared housing options.
