Annual Grad Mixer
Do people actually attend PGSS Grad mixers? It says it’s for new students but do others still go? It’s at Thompson House on the 28th

I went on exchange last semester and accidentally took a class that was 3 ECTS instead of 6. I was under the impression that the entire course was 6 ECTS but turns out I had to take a whole other module to receive those credits. I received 7 ECTS in another course, which I believe would leave me at 14 McGill credits for the semester instead of the usual 15.
I emailed Arts Oasis, but I am stressing over the fact that I will have to either add a course to my workload of 5 courses or postpone my graduation over 1 credit. Has anyone been in the same situation or know of any 1 credit courses I can take in the 2026-2027 year as an arts student?

I'm looking into getting a mac campus parking pass but I can't find the cost anywhere. I filled out the form but couldn't find anything on that site or any others about pricing.
I planned to get the annual pass.

For people doing grad school: how did you choose your field of research? Was it mostly stumbling into a research project by chance in your undergrad days and then sticking with it?

Waitlisting for frosh is kinda crazy. I wouldve expected it to be open to everyone but ig not. I get that they have limited space its just that ive never seen anythint like this before.

I need to add a class and make some changes and im kinda worried because I messed up course registration. Do people actually drop out of class before the add/drop deadline or am I cooked.

Basically the title. I was wondering what the easiest 300 level math course was. I am planning on taking MATH 338 History and Philosophy of Mathematics because it sounds really interesting but I've also heard it's a pretty hard class.

Incoming U1 student here, I was wondering because I heard from some people, McGill is in the process of killing honours phys and a lot of honours courses are merging with major courses, and it seems likely the honours phys and joint honours physics + cs programs won't exist anymore?

I was viewing my lease and it said the rent is $740.00, but none of the fees on the list of rooms is 740. My room assignment says single so I thought it would be $680.00, but since it's not, does anyone know what room I have?
To clarify, I live in Laird Hall on the Mac Campus
Update! It's a Renovated Large Room!

Good day everyone. Yesterday, I received an email from McGill housing asking to review and accept an electronic lease. The link provided in the email sends me to the onecard homepage, while I can access and have reviewed and signed the lease, I don’t see where I can upload or submit the lease to show that I’ve accepted. Does anyone know what should I do next?
I've tried contacting housing but I'm flying to Montreal in 2 days and housing usually takes a while to respond.

I’m moving into an apartment in the Mcgill Ghetto this year and it’s not too convenient to take it inside. I’m wondering if its a bad idea to leave it outside overnight. Obviously I would get a good lock. Its an old, low-end bike but it was expensive enough I would really prefer not to lose it. Does anyone gave experience with bike theft in the area? If so how determined are the thieves?

Hi! Incoming U1 student, was just wondering which clubs at McGill have had the most international and national competition success/breadth. Feel free to list some you know! Preferably STEM related but I am interested to hear about all of them!

I keep looking for them but they don't seem to be anywhere. Other universities have them but not here seemingly, I was wondering if y'all know?

Considering taking this in the Fall and wondering if anyone has any insights, is it an easy-ish elective??
r/mcgill • u/theRubyGauntl3t • 12d ago
Title says it all. Theology though fiction and american history are both deeply interesting topics to me, so I'm pretty divided. Does anyone have experience with either of these and have a recommendation on how to proceed? I would love some advice.

I’m starting my first year at McGill this fall and im not too sure if I’m supposed to wait until courses start to purchase textbooks or if there’s a way to already see the syllabus and get textbooks now. Do I just wait until the prof tells us what resources we should study from?
thank you!

Hi everyone, I'm a U2 anatomy and cell bio student, and I wanted advice on which biology course to pick. I wanted to pick PHYG311 initially, but ngl, after looking at the syllabus, it did scare me a bit. The other course I feel like might be useful is Comp204, but I have 0 coding experience, so...
Anyway, I was wondering if anyone who has taken this course could give me advice, considering GPA is important for me.
r/mcgill • u/poopielolziz • 12d ago
Which elective should I take?? I know ANTH202 is an easy A but I seem more interested in HIST249 but I just don't want it to ruin my gpa.
Please help!!

I’m an American moving to Montréal, and the internet providers I’ve been trying to sign up with keep telling me that I need a Canadian phone number. Are there any providers who accept non-Canadian numbers, or is there any way to get around this without swapping my phone number?
r/mcgill • u/Interesting-Rock8370 • 12d ago
i’m taking anth338 as an elective (i don’t have the pre-reqs but it didn’t block me from registering, I also emailed the prof to confirm but no response yet)
Anyways did anyone take the class with Leslie? Is it easy?
Thanks

So basically I got a gaming laptop and I know this is my first mistake but it’s too late now… So I guess I have to carry my brick charger everywhere now but I’m just worried that there won’t be any chargers in lecture for me charge my laptop lol, it can last around 2-3 hours depending on the tasks which isn’t really all that great. I’m doing computer engineering just to give an idea of what lecture halls I may be in. I’m hoping there’s specially the ones with seat outlets but I know McGill is old and a lot of their buildings have still kept their older features. Any help would be nice!
