You’ll most likely be accepted.

I don’t know how hard it is for international students to get into McGill… but I know that it’s not that hard for Quebec residents. People make a big fuss about McGill being one of the most prestigious schools in Canada and all, but I don’t see it.

For medicine and law (which are both taught at the undergraduate level in Quebec), McGill is top notch and it’s definitely hard to get accepted in those fields. As for other fields… meh, McGill has the name recognition, but that’s pretty much it in my opinion. It’s good, but not what it’s made out to be. Of course, for English speakers, it remains by far the best option in Quebec.

With that being said, I still encourage you to apply there. The campus is really nice and Montreal is an awesome city to live in.
