It really depends on the school. Concordia Molson (business) is good.
Economics is excellent at UDEm, very difficult to into with difficult math.
You can apply to both.
Then you can apply to Engineering in the US but those will be smaller schools (not highly ranked) because you prepared ES.
If you apply by September 2019 (with TOEFL in JUNE 2019) you can start in January 2020
HEC MOntreal ( business school ) is very hard to get into… But if concordia business is good i can maybe transfer after to good universities in the usa nah? Like i mean, if its a good school there is no reason for me to have no jobs or something ( yeah bc now employers r only looking at your university etc)
Edit : what about the concordia campus?
And i dont understand the admission requirements, they want an average of high school gpa of 12( french system) or just 12 at the ‘’ bac ‘’
OP, you are wasting evertone’s time. You went from 3.5 GPA and possible 1550 in SATs to not sure yoy can pass the TOEFL and I am still not sure what your real GPA actually is. Your intrest in majors have changed from business, to engineering and also law. You asked about studying in the USA, then mentioned going to Viena and now you are entertaining Canada, which you started by saying you would never go there. Your budget went from 47K to 30k and lately it has been 15K. When you are all over the place, you make it difficult for others to offer sound advice.
Please READ SLOWLY and take notes.
1° UdeM Economics = yes. HEC Montreal = no.
2° McGill McDonald’s Agribusiness = yes*; McGill (all of the rest) = no
3° Concordia Molson = yes; Concordia Economics = yes
4° UQAM Economics = yes
TOEFL: taken in June, results in July, must be sent by July 31 to McGill and Concordia for Winter (2020) start.

“Okay. But what about UDEM?”
I am not sure that I fully understood what this question is referring to. A previous comment correctly pointed out that you need the TOEFL or IELTS to apply to Concordia. You will not need this for UDEM (Universite de Montreal) or UQAM (Universite de Quebec a Montreal) because these are French language schools. While English and French are both useful to get around in Montreal, you do not need any English at all to attend UDEM or UQAM.
“im planning to transfer to the usa for like a graduate program”
If you get your bachelor’s degree at any of Concordia, UDEL, or UQAM, then you can apply to study for a master’s degree at universities in Canada, the US, or Europe. You will want to work hard to keep your grades up while getting your bachelor’s degree. I do know people who did their bachelor’s degree in Canada and their master’s in the US. In this case “transfer” is not strictly speaking the correct word. It is very common for people to get their bachelor’s at one university and their master’s at a different university, and the application process to apply for a master’s program is really not all that different from applying to a bachelor’s degree program after high school.
My feeling is that you should get a few applications in, and then see where you are accepted.

Looks like you are not reading sir.
I have a 3.5 GPA ( which is equivalent to 16/20 where 20 is the best ) in my final high school exam, otherwise i have like a 2.7-3.0 gpa during my entiere school
‘’ Your interet in major have changed ‘’ i mentionned that i always appreciated law and engineering in my previous posts.
I mentioned to study in the usa it was my thread’s main discussion, but after thinking with my parents and with people in this forum it’s not worth for me, and it’s not about money because we got the 200k.
We were talking about Vienna because someone suggested me to study in Europe, be sure to read comments
‘’ nd now you are entertaining Canada, which you started by saying you would never go there ‘’ As i mentionned in every single post about Canada, im trying to convince my parents because it’s hard.
‘’ Your budget went from 47K to 30k and lately it has been 15K. ‘’ My budget is about 200k but just be logic people suggested me canada because it’s cheaper why will i say that i have 200k in a place where school costs 15 000 ?
Otherwise thank you for your comment i have to admit that im confusing everyone and it’s due to the fact that im very stressed and im not experienced as yo uguys thats why even if im repeating myself, thank you guys.

I think i will go to concordia
By the way i would like to add that i want to become CFO, espacially an airline CFO because i love the aviation industry, my dream were airline pilot … ! And im like ‘’ if i study at John melson concordia, even if its not a top university, will it be good?’’
Also guys : https://www.concordia.ca/admissions/undergraduate/requirements/international.html in this link, click on baccalauréat français and go down to JohnMalson requirements, and there is a board.
‘’ BComm, BAdmin Overall > minimum average of 13, with 13 in math ‘’ When they say average of 13 with 13 in maths they are talking about my entiere high school or just the final exam?
“When they say average of 13 with 13 in maths they are talking about my entire high school or just the final exam”
I think that you need to either ask the school, or apply and see what happens. My guess is that the final exam is more important. I think that you should apply to several schools, probably both in France and in Quebec, and see where you get in.
If you want to add one more school in Quebec, in addition to UQAM you might also want to consider Universite de Laval in Quebec City. I have only been to Quebec City twice, one in July and once for winter carnival. However, it seems to be a very attractive small city. You could also consider Universite de Sherbrooke (in Sherbrooke, of course) and, if you want a small school, Bishop’s.
Is Concordia a good university ? What do you guys think? ( btw world rankign doesnt reflect the quality)?
You need to ask each school whether sending your bac results will suffice.
Yes, all these universities are excellent.
You need to apply to several universities.
(This has been said twice already so I’ll repeat for the last time, in simplified version: these rankings focus on items for graduate students, not factors that matter to undergraduate education).
You need to start working on the TOEFL now and pass it in June.
There’s no leeway: if you don’t score the minimum they won’t even look at your application.
The only way you can study subjects such as engineering, mechatronics, applied computing… would be in smaller US universities.
Thank you, it’s hard for me because i have 74552 questions thank you…! I took private professors to score at least 98 TOEFL . I think that i got the necessary for UDEm ( talked to a student, you need ‘’ 13 ‘’ ) And when iwas asking about concordia’s requirements i wanted to know if they want a ‘’ 13 french gpa ‘’ during my entiere high school or just at the fibnal exams. Anyway, im applying before september 1, but to be honest there is only concordia ( in my opinion ) who accepts ( for now ) for wi,nter 2020, if you guys have any other universities in quebec who accepts in winter 2020 let me know!
By the way as i said my hobbies ( majors ) are economics,business,law , human ressources! A degree in economics it the major to become a CFO?
There are many pathways to a job. More than the major*, what will matter is your choice of courses (for CFO you’ll need a strong quantitative background) and your internships.
DO NOT trust what a student said. The student may be well-meaning but may misguide you.
EMAIL Admissions and ask them directly “I graduated from a French lycée with my Baccalauréat ES and a Mention Bien. Would my Relevé de Notes du baccalauréat be sufficient for my application?” Don’t forget to introduce yourself and thank them.
You said you were interested in many subjects.
Human resources is very different from Economics for instance. Look carefully at the number of math courses, the core courses, and the specialty courses.
At Concordia, UdeM, Laval, Bishop’s, Sherbrooke, you apply to more than one major. Look at their website and select majors similar to Economics that you find interesting.
For instance, at Concordia, you could apply to Economics (B.Comm), Economics (BA, with co-op**), Certificate in Foundations for Business (a program to help you get into Concordia if they don’t admit you to the other programs).
*(a major is the main subject you’ll study. For instance “economics major” is “to study economics mainly, along with subjects that you need for economics such as statistics”.)
** a co-op semester is a semester of work experience when you work full time and receive a stipend. If your employer likes you they may offer you a summer job or a real job to get you started in your career.
Thank you ! Helpful answers as always! I’m preparing myself to get into Concordia. I hope it will work. @MYOS1634 as an objective person do you think that I have a shot at Concordia? I will apply to other universities too but Concordia is my favorite and if I’m rejected I will be obliged to stay in France
What do you mean “If I’m rejected I will be obliged to stay in France”?
There are dozens of better universities in Canada and the US, including some with strong co-ops.
Yes, your odds are 70%+ at Concordia, especially if you indicate the three programs I listed above as your choices (ie., willingness to start in the Business Foundations certificate program if you can’t get straight into the Econ BA with co-op or the B.Comm).
But you can’t put all your eggs in the same basket.
You should apply to universities where you are willing to attend.
Okay thank you so much! I’m doing this ! I’m continuing my researches about quebecian universities for winter admission! ! I will let you guys informed
I talked to a concordia student and they told me that i cant add my specific situation in the application form ( live what i was victime of etc)
“live what I was victime of” = ?
