Reviewed Decision Pending - McGill University

Hi, I’m a student in the US and I applied for the fac. of arts at McGill, but I’ve been stuck on decision pending for over a month. Deposits for a lot of schools are due May 1, and I’m getting nervous. Is pending bad?? and have any of you had the same experience??

Are your stats at or close to the minimum requirements? That may explain the late decision.

Same for my son. He called and was told that decisions for US students may come as late as mid-May and they pointed him to the page https://www.mcgill.ca/applying/nextsteps/decision They also said that the deadline of May 1st for US universities is “a problem every year” but McGill deadlines are different. And yes my son’s stats are close to the minimum requirements for last year
