Important information

  • *Note: you will be applying to the UC system, not a specific campus. Campus assignment is determined by the University of California admissions. Check here to see which programs are offered at each campus!

  • Due to the quarter system at UC, a Fall only exchange is not recommended as you would need to complete a minimum of 2 quarters in order to be eligible for 15 McGill credits (which would then run into McGill's Winter term). Additionally, please note that Economics majors require calculus as a pre-requisite.
