McGill University

McGill University, located in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, is a public research university. The university was founded in 1821 by a royal charter granted by King George IV and is named after James McGill, a Scottish merchant whose bequest in 1813 established the university’s predecessor, the University of McGill College (or simply McGill College); the name was changed to McGill University in 1885. McGill’s main campus is located on the slopes of Mount Royal in downtown Montreal, with a second campus located 30 kilometers (19 miles) west of the main campus in Sainte-Anne-de-Bellevue, also on Montreal Island. Along with the University of Toronto, the university is one of only two universities outside of the United States that are members of the Association of American Universities, and it is the only Canadian member of the World Economic Forum’s Global University Leaders Forum (GULF). McGill has the highest overall entering grades of any Canadian university and offers degrees and diplomas in over 300 fields of study. The five main faculties, Humanities, Technology, Medicine, Engineering, and Management, enroll the majority of students. McGill’s student body is the most geographically diverse of any medical-doctoral research university in Canada, with 30% of students coming from over 150 countries. McGill is regularly ranked among the top 50 universities in the world and among the top three universities in Canada in all major rankings. It has topped the annual Maclean’s Canadian University Rankings for medical-doctoral universities for the past 16 years.
