SCHOLARSHIPS AND STUDENT AID


The Scholarships and Student Aid Office helps students locate the financial resources necessary to cover the costs of their education. Here you’ll find information on scholarship funding, government aid programs, McGill loans and bursaries, debt management, individualized budget counselling, and the Work-Study program.

McGill is proud of the quality of its students and their accomplishments, and it has an extensive program of entrance scholarships to recognize academic excellence.

  • Entrance scholarships range in value from the Basic Scholarship ($3,000 one-year awards) to the Major Scholarships ($3,000 to $10,000 renewable).
  • All eligible applicants are automatically considered for Basic Scholarships. Separate applications are required for all Major Scholarships.
