Living Expenses? Rent?

<p>I've been admitted to the Faculty of Arts, and I've figured that the tuition will cost me about 17k$ a year (candadian dollars). Can anyone currently at McGill give me an estimate of how much rent and living expenses cost? I'm planning to spend the first year living on campus, how much does that come out to? If I choose to move into a flat, would that be cheaper?</p>

<p>Thanks a lot :)</p>

<p>Hello,
Not at mcgill but from what i know residence costs are on the mcgill site and a flat would usually cost you around 700 to 800 dollars a month.</p>
