How to use this GPA snapshot

This page summarizes published GPA-related admissions indicators for McGill University on a 4.0 scale. Minimum GPA is a floor many applicants should clear; average admitted GPA reflects the middle of a competitive pool and is usually higher.

GPA is only one part of holistic review. Test scores (where used), essays, recommendations, coursework rigor, and program capacity also matter. Always confirm requirements on the school’s official admissions site before applying — published averages change by year and campus.

Compare your standing here, then model semester or cumulative GPA with our GPA calculator and browse more schools in the full GPA requirement checker.
