<p>Has anyone heard about their scholarships yet? I got accepted three days back and got the $3000 entrance scholarship 12 hours later. My major scholarship application still says in-progress so I was just wondering around when I should hear back and if they've started handing out scholarships already. :)</p>
<p>I’m waiting for my Major Entrance Scholarship too… Right now the status mesage is: “Your application is being reviewed by a selection committee.”. According to the McGill website, it takes about 1-2 weeks after the admission for the financial aid and major scholarships decisions to be made…</p>
<p>Same here! My two weeks are almost up and I’m freaking out!</p>
<p>I just got an email from McGill saying that all Major Entrance Scholarship decisions will be released by the end of April…</p>
<p>Really? Could you send me a screenshot? I didn’t get any email :s</p>
<p>Both of us have got the $3000 one-year grant so I suppose we should take it as a good sign :)</p>
<p>So I called them and they said that no emails had been sent out and we’ll hear our decisions latest by April 30th. She told me to keep checking Minerva since our decision could be posted anyday. Best of luck!!</p>
<p>@ks1994 Great! Did you apply for Need-based aid and McGill Bursary? Any news about it?</p>
<p>@upapilot Nope I didn’t since I don’t qualify for those! </p>

<p>Can’t wait to see you all next year! :)</p>
<p>Guys can you tell me how do we cme to know if we get 3000$ basic scholarship? I mean is there a criteria and when are deciisons made to give that scholarship? Ive been accepted but dont know when will I get to know $3000 Scholarship? Thanks</p>
<p>@daddyshome Well, you’re supposed to know within days of getting admitted. Check your financial aid and awards section, mine got updated 12 hours after I got accepted. And the criteria depends on where you’re from. I’m a CIE student so I got mine on straight As in O levels and A levels.</p>
<p>■■■■ man I didnt get any 
Becuse i just have 8As 2Bs in CIE and 3As1B in my AS. I was really hoping to get it [-( </p>
<p>@daddyshome when did you get accepted? My grades aren’t that different from yours. I have 6 A<em>s 3As 1B in my Olevels and, because I took a year off, an A</em>AAA in my A levels.</p>
<p>@daddyshome I’m not too bothered about the $3000 scholarship. Its non-renewable (1 year only) and its amount is quite insignificant compared to the full tuition+costs. I received my Entrance Scholarship decision about 24 hours after my admission decision.
Personally, I’m more worried about the Major Undergraduate Entrance Scholarship which is renewable for 4 years and a much more significant award…</p>
<p>@ks1994 I got in Mcgill on 26th Feb in Desautels Management. Your grades have massive difference than mine 
</p>
<p>@upapilot
I still haven’t applied to major scholarship. Whats the deadline for applying? </p>
<p>And btw a question for every admitted freshman: Did you guys get any welcome package mailed by McGill? Cuz Almost every Uni does that and I havent received anything from McGill yet </p>
<p>BTW which Program did you guys got in and are you all International?</p>
<p>@daddyshome I got a AABBD in my AS Level, which is why I’m surprised you didn’t get one! But it’s quite possible they completely ignored that disastrous result since I had my final result :p</p>
<p>@daddyshome I study in Pakistan, but I’m also a Permanent Resident of Canada. I got accepted to Desautels and the Faculty of Arts. I didn’t get a welcome package and I didn’t get one last year either. Maybe we’ll get it once we accept their offers? Oh and the deadline for the Major scholarship passed ages ago.</p>
