- Because of its overall reputation and global ranking. McGill is well situated in the heart of Montreal.,
- The competitive atmosphere, the diverse crowd, the teaching faculty, the well-equipped labs. Moreover, it is well connected with metro and bus routes.
- Dislikes:
- I dislike the examination system and the variability in how each course is structured. There is no uniformity in the exam pattern and each professor has the right to design the course according to their needs which might be difficult for some students to follow.
Course Curriculum:
The course curriculum is well designed and the diverse courses are offered across different domains.
Fees:
For thesis based programs, the total fees can be somewhere around 35000 CAD. For non-thesis-based programs, the total fees can be around 42000 CAD.
- Likes:
- McGill is top 2nd in Canada and top 29th worldwide. Also particularly I liked the lab and research work as I exactly wanted to work on basic science and cancer biology.,
- Research, academic life, networking opportunities, freedom to attend conferences, events, student life, fun, inter-departmental connections and affiliations
- Dislikes:
- Placement opportunities could be more strengthened but I guess this is more of an abroad thing because I know that even masters courses in India provide with placements at the end
Course Curriculum:
Perfectly updated and relevant. Industrial exposure is not provided yet because my field is more basic science. But McGill has career oriented coaching programs which i plan to use during my final year of PhD.
Fees:
International fees: $20,000 per year (in CAD). But thesis-grad students receive about $16,000 as an international fee waiver every year.
- Likes:
- I liked Montreal as a bilingual city and the program sparked my interest.
Course Curriculum:
It was a very nice program with a variety of courses and offered exposure into broad bases in human biology. They were actively making changes to the curriculum and finding new ways to improve the coursework. In terms of research the program was heavily designed to be research focused and allowed multiple support for research opportunities and students with novel ideas or looking to join labs.
Fees:
$32000 CAD
- Likes:
- Ranking, prestige as being the best in Canada, and presence of a specific professor.,
- Education at McGill Faculty of Law is usually focussed more on jurisprudential aspects, so if you love that this University is for you. The workload is going to be heavy so be ready for that. Funding opportunities are limited for Master's students, but getting a RA position is possible, although very tough since JD students will give you tough competition for the same. There are immense networking opportunities if you stay alert and only read your emails properly.,
- If you want to go to academia, McGill is a good place to start your journey. Be warned though, the path to academia is long and arduous.,
- McGill has the advantage of having an education in French as well. So if you want to learn French, this is the place to be because many students here are from France. But you wouldn't face any difficulty as a Master's student if you don't know any French. Since almost 15 percent of the batch is comprised of people from India, you will feel at home always. Further, McGill has a mix of Common and Civil law, which could be useful if you have an interest in Civil Law.
- Dislikes:
- Not too much. If you want to practice in Common Law after graduation, then perhaps you would be better off going to Toronto or Vancouver, since networking opportunities work best in person. Other than that, McGill is golden.
Course Curriculum:
Updated and research-intensive. You can get RA positions if you try hard enough. You can get an internship at the law firms. CDO (google it) helps you in the process too. But ultimately your efforts will decide your career, nothing else.
Fees:
Around CAD 30,000 for a year of Master of Law.
- Likes:
- It is the best medical university in the country for the last 15 years and my program is under faculty of medicine.
Course Curriculum:
Yes, I am in a thesis program where i am working in a research lab by taking MRI of subjects and analyzing them as my research work.
McGill University, being one of the premier research institutes of the country has truly lived up to its expectations as it has given me a great platform to start my research career with its strong research abilities and a great international outlook. I'm really glad that I took this decision to pursue my masters from this university and looking forward to graduate soon.
Course Curriculum:
The course syllabus was up-to-date. We were given industrial exposure through researching directly on companies and interacting with company executives.
Fees:
120000 CAD (approx 20000 CAD a semester)
Course Curriculum:
Mine is a thesis program which means I'll be doing research work on a particular area of interest. I'll have one course every term until the first year which is related to my program and it's taught by different professors based on the topic of that class. And the remaining everything is just the research work!
Fees:
It's around 35,000 CAD for two years
Course Curriculum:
The course is well structured. It is not old and the content of the course is very important to get jobs. It covers all the important parts of my field and hence is really good for research and job prospects.
Fees:
44000 CAD per year.
Course Curriculum:
The courses are nice and simple. They don't get boring nor repetitive. They are interesting and interactive.
Fees:
64 Thousand CAD

A four-year bachelor’s degree is typically required to apply for graduate admission at McGill University. However, the university also somtimes accepts applications from students who have completed a three-year bachelor’s degree on a case-by-case basis. However, meeting the minimum admission requirements does not guarantee admission to the program, as admission decisions are highly competitive and based on a holistic review of each students’s credentials.
