2023 McGill University Entrance Bursary Program for International Students in Canada

McGill University is committed to supporting the academic pursuits of qualified undergraduate students who require financial assistance. The University’s Entrance Bursary Program offers entrance bursaries to students from low to modest-income families who demonstrate financial need.

Benefits

The Entrance Bursary program is a Need-based financial aid for future undergraduates.

The goal of the program is to make the University more accessible to those who face financial challenges by supplementing other funding resources such as government aid, Indigenous Band Support Funding, part-time work, parental support, and other sources of funding.

Requirements

To be considered for the Entrance Bursary Program, applicants must:

  • Enrol in a full-time degree program at the University
  • Demonstrate financial need, including the intention to apply for government student aid and/or Indigenous Band Support Funding

Students registered with the Student Accessibility & Achievement may be eligible for financial aid while pursuing a reduced course load.

Decision times

Award decisions begin in February, and continue thereafter on a rolling basis, 2-3 weeks from the date of application submission and/or documentation receipt (where required). Decisions are posted on the Financial Aid/Awards tab on Minerva and are followed by a formal letter. Awardees are encouraged to pay special attention to their letter as it contains important information about the award.
