<p>There is not much information on transferring to McGill from the states, so if anyone can provide some insight then that would be great!</p>
<p>I just wanted to know if anyone knows how high the GPA should be if you are transferring from a college in the states. Currently I am a Sophomore at NYU with a 3.0 GPA. </p>
<p>SAT:
Math: 760
Reading: 630
Writing: 600</p>
<p>SAT II
Math II: 710
Chemistry: 690
Biology: 600</p>
<p>Act Composite: 29</p>
<p>I'm not sure if they will even look at those scores...</p>
<p>Just want to know how hard it is to transfer from a notable college in the US.</p>
<p>Awesome, thanks!</p>
<p>If I do get in, I am just worried about the transfer of credits cause I have taken very specific classes at NYU that I am not sure would have a comparable class at McGill.</p>
<p>a 3.0 out of 4.0? I go to Fordham LC and I am looking to transfer to!</p>
<p>Contrary to econgrad, a 3.0 from NYU will not impress McGill. Admission would be doubtful.</p>
<p>the majority of mcgill students don’t have a 3.0</p>
<p>And NYU aside, your test scores alone would suffice your admission in the first place.</p>
<p>So no debate here, 100% in.</p>
<p>When you say they don’t have a 3.0, is that to say that the school is very difficult?</p>
<p>the class average is usually C+ to B range. Standard deviation is probably high.</p>
<p>There is no grade inflation or deflation. If you are a hard worker, you would be fine.</p>
<p>Not to be negative, but when I transferred to McGill after my freshman year from another Canadian university (which has a lot less grade inflation that the U.S.) I was told by McGill Admissions they took in very very few transfer applicants, only started looking at “strong B+” averages (3.5) and the ones who did get admitted usually had A- or A GPAs. And that applying after freshman year was hard, and that students rarely got more than 30 credits transferred, but occasionally up to 60. I actually know a girl who transferred from NYU, she had a 3.7 something. Good luck though!</p>
