Have any CANADIAN applicants been accepted yet?

I know there are a few threads for McGill acceptance, but most of you kiddies are from the states. As a result, I'm 90% sure you guys get responses first.

I'm from Toronto and I applied back in Novemeber. My status is now "Ready for review" and I'm just curious how much longer the wait will be. I'm done my 6 4U courses already, so they're not waiting on any marks thats for sure.

Anyone or anyone you guys know from Canada been accepted yet? When, and to what? Any idea what their marks were like?

i dont think you guys will get accepted until at least april... a friend in calgary says that he'll probably have to wait until after his diplomas to give him his decision (june) and then said "i hate you" because we get accepted way before they do, and on a rolling basis too . scores, according to mcgill's website, 91% average in ontario.

McGill is sending out offers to students in the IB program in Ontario. I know several people with offers for music and science..

You'll hear from them after midterms probably

Good luck

Hey guys!

Thanks for the replies. I've been checking back but there was a problem with my account, so I couldn't reply. Keep the updates coming, and please post where you're applying from!

I've got nothing yet personally, though I figured I'd be close to the end since my average wasn't super high. It's too bad McGill doesn't look at any Extra Curric's

Anyways - I e-mailed them a while ago and they said offers are going out between now and the 21st of May, so those of you that dont know will know in the next 19 days. Good luck!

ME: Ontario student, 83.5 Average, Applied to Mechanical Engineering.
