I was accepted at both schools with similar financial aid awards, and my ultimate goal is to get into a good American law school (I’m Canadian btw). I know that the two couldn’t be more different, with McGill being in the middle of a gigantic city and Colgate in rural NY. I really like Colgate because of small class sizes and the liberal arts focus, but I was worried about their grade deflation policy which could really hurt my GPA. I think there are more internship opportunities at McGill since its in the middle of Montreal, and I’ve heard mixed things about grade deflation/inflation there. Can anyone give any insight into this?
Anyone?
Choose the cheapest school where you can get the best GPA is the advice I’d give to an American applicant. Google “top law schools canadian applicant” and read through some threads on top-law-schools.com
