Centrally-administered entrance scholarships

McGill's Scholarships and Student Aid Office offers merit-based entrance scholarships to first-time university students entering a full-time undergraduate degree program.

Transfer, Mature, Diploma, Exchange, Special, Part-time and Visiting students are not eligible for entrance scholarships.

There are two types of centrally-administered entrance scholarships:

  • One-year Entrance Scholarships, valued at $3,000 (non-renewable)

  • Major Entrance Scholarships, valued between $3,000, $5,000, $10,000 or $12,000 (renewable annually up to 3 or 4 years provided criteria for renewal are met)
    ($12,000 scholarships are only available to Canadian citizens or legal permanent residents of Canada)

Eligibility

Our office offers merit-based entrance scholarships to first-time university students entering a full-time undergraduate degree program.

Transfer, Mature, Diploma, Exchange, Special, Part-time and Visiting students are not eligible for entrance scholarships.

Maximum one entrance scholarship

Recipients of McGill centrally-administered entrance scholarships can receive only one scholarship. If you receive more than one offer, the final entrance scholarship will be that of the highest eligible value. This will not impact Faculty-specific Entrance Scholarships.

Deadlines

If you apply after the admission deadline, you will not be considered for an entrance scholarship even if you have been granted permission to submit a late admission application.
