@klb222 Yes, submitted first term grades in November.
@juliadanan I applied on October 28th but I sent in my senior midyear scores on December 1st.
Do you know how I could upload my midyear scores? it doesn’t allow me to upload anywhere on my minerva.
@juliadanan under the checklist section on minerva, it asks you to upload mid yr/ second quarter grade, doesn’t it?
No it doesn’t… but I did apply on December 1st. Is it too early?
@juliadanan My daughter’s status changed a few days ago from “under review” to “further review required.” When her status changed the message “send senior year interim grades” appeared just below where info on transcripts are on her application / Minerva form. My daughter applied in late Aug / early Sept.
Oh, alright! Thank you so much your help.
Hope you don’t mind me asking, but what grades did you get in AS? @TheCreation
have any IB diploma students gotten in yet? My application status is still “ready for review”.
@TheDarkLordYA I did AS and A2 together. Got 3A* 1A. How about you?
Did anyone apply to the faculty of science?
@TheCreation did AS, 4A, predicted 4A*, I’m pretty sure you will be one of the first GCE students to get accepted lol.

Reflection
[] Strengths: Honestly I have no idea, I just really wanted to go to McGill and my wishes came true!!!
[] Weaknesses: I think all my stats are average or just a bit above.
[] Why you think you were accepted/deferred/rejected: I checked my status frequently and submitted everything ahead of time
[] Where else were you accepted/deferred/rejected: Not any yet
General Comments: I see that some other students got accepted several days after they submitted their first quarter/trimester grades. Maybe it’s a pattern. My app status changed to Further review required requesting my interim grades on Friday of last week. I sent it in right away and got a decision around noon today! (after two business days) Good luck everyone! I am pumped for McGill!!!
Does anyone know when the $3,000 entrance scholarship is awarded? Or did I not receive one if it’s not showing up in my Minerva account?
Did you send in first quarter grades? Doesn’t interim mean first semester?
Does McGill superscore the ACT?
@pat2442 I sent first quarter grades on my whole school transcript, since by the time I submitted my app my school was beginning second quarter. In the faculty where I’ve been accepted, there’s no slot for updated grades. However, in another faculty where my app is still under review, there is a spot for “second quarter/midyear grades” not sure if that helps or if that’s not what you see on yours
For interim grades they just want the grades that you have in Grade 12. Luckily our school is on a trimester system so I was able to send in my first trimester grades as soon as they requested them.
I attended a webinar for us undergrad admissions. They told me to send in everything I had and they would look at all of them and look at the best ones (they didn’t say if they would superscore them specifically but they do look at the best ones; so send in everything you’ve got.)
Hi everyone. I applied to both science BSc programs. I am a Colombian girl and my academic average is about 92%. My grades in physics, calculus, chemistry and biology are around 95% Do I have a chance?
