What are Macdonald Campus and Downtown Campus?

<p>Few weeks ago, I got a thick McGill University Calender that has Undergrad programs. In the cover, it says "MacDonald Campus celebrating 100 years". I was just curious about MacDonald Campus... and went online and found there was another campus called "downtown" campus... how are they different?</p>

<p>The Downtown campus is where you will most likely be studying, this is where pretty much everything is located the McDonald Campus is about a 30 min drive west, it's a the campus for agricultural studies or something like that i highly doubt you'll even ever see the McDonald Campus during your stay at McGill</p>

<p>MacDonald Campus houses the Faculty of Agricultural Sciences and the School of Dietetics... school of enivornment students would have classes there as would anyone pursuing human nutrition/plant science etc.</p>

<p>Could anyone studying there provide some descriptions, comments and / or perceptions about the settings, including all non-academic aspects, of McDonald Campus?</p>

<p>Thank you a lot,</p>

<p>There are about 4 people on the Mac campus.
...joking.</p>

<p>The only girl I know from that campus says that while sh enjoys having a smaller community she comes to the city every weekend because there's really not much to do over there.</p>

<p>Thank you lennni for the reply.</p>

<p>Do you know if McGill provides shuttle bus service between McDonald Campus and Downtown Campus?</p>

<p>Yeah there is a free shuttle service. I'm not sure how many times a day it runs, though.</p>
