Hostel:
The accommodations for the first year was great. However, they were a little expensive which is why I would recommend staying off-campus.
I chose this university due to its stature and location. Canada provides better opportunities for jobs after graduation that other countries.
Hostel:
I live off campus which is 10 mins walk away from the campus. I live in a basement of a house with an attached washroom to my room and I'll be sharing the Kitchen with three others on the first floor.
There were many reasons. A few of them are #1 - It's one of the world's top-ranked universities (ranked - 32 in the world) #2 - The course structure #3 - My area of interest that matches with the supervisor I selected #4 - Campus culture (got to know through my seniors & friends)
Hostel:
I live in a shared room with one of my friends. If you want a single room, it is around 700-800 CAD. It is not that expensive considering the apartment are downtown.
McGill is considered one of the best Universities. In addition to this, it was cheaper than UBC and UofT. The course offered was really good and it good location.
Hostel:
No, I live with friends 10 minutes away. The accommodation is very easy to find around the campus at cheaper rates than the hostel.
This university is affordable along with a very nice location in Canada. It is a fair acceptance rate and good courses at its disposal.
Hostel:
I did the first year. My dorm was very very nice. It was a hotel turned into a residence and it was very nice.
Because it's a great college and give the prospect of getting Canadian PR after.
Hostel:
I lived off-campus. This is due to multiple factors. First of all, my family is from Montreal. Therefore, I was already living at home with all the amenities I need to survive. In addition, it was not much of a hassle to transport me from and to campus. It would only be harder to live off-campus and spend a great deal of money for housing.
I have known about McGill University since I was around the age of 15. I discovered it one day when I was walking the streets of Montreal with my family. Four years later, I found myself intrigued by McGill, it's a beautiful campus and it's a wide choice of great programs. The admission process, from what I remember, was pretty straightforward.
Because of it's reputation in research and because it was an English school in my area. I also really did not want to leave the province I am living in so McGill seemed like the clear choice. It also had an option to apply to honours in my second year which I really liked as it would motivate me to stay on top of my work in my first year.
The cost, as well as the opportunity to get away from my hometown. Plus, my college was recommended to me by many of my mentors and peers. I was also particularly interested in double majoring in econ and compsci, and I heard both programs here were pretty good. Most of the other colleges I got into were engineering focused or forced me to choose one or the other.
It is the most elite/highest ranked university in my province (Quebec), as well as highly distinguishable worldwide and in Canada. Further, as a science major, I was heavily influenced by the research-centered ideology of McGill.
High International student percentage, Top university in Canada, good employment prospects. Most importantly, located in Canada, which has a very open immigration policy for students who study and work in the country.
