I was waitlisted in April as well, and just got accepted about five days ago (faculty of arts). I think it depends on the department you applied to, but if this can help, I called the school a few weeks ago and they said that the latest you could hear back is July 31st.

And don’t give up! I know that McGill accepts tons of kids from French private schools like the Lycee Francais in New York (McGill is basically a “safety school” for most of them as long as they have a 14/20 average or above… My younger brother, for example, goes to the Lycee Francais while I went to an American public HS, and we have similar grades, but while McGill was my reach, it is his “safety”!) So even though it’s a bit unfair in my opinion, it can be motivating when your on the waitlist! A lot of those French school kids only applied to McGill as a safety… ;)
