Chances of getting into McGill? (international student)

Chance Me / Match Me!
1

I’m 18 and just finished high school, but am taking a year off so I’ll be applying next year.

My results:
GPA: 3.9
SAT: 1500
ACT: 33

I didn’t take any AP classes, because we don’t have them in out country and my school also doesn’t provide any IB programs. Also, I hear Canadian colleges only look at the last 3 years? If not, my GPA is 3.8 (4 years)

  • What are my chances at getting a scholarship? I come from a poor-ish country and our salaries are lower, so I definitely can't afford everything without any help. Could the fact that I'm coming from a small, 2 million people country help me in diversity department and give me some extra points, since McGill likes international students?

McGill, likes many US public universities, likes international students because they are usually full pay. McGill has an incredibly diverse international population so that will not help your chances. SAT/ACT’s are only used for American applicants. Here are the requirements for admission:
