[quote=Anonymous]I believe McGill's classes are entirely conducted in English. McGill's web site (and maybe Toronto's) specify minimum grades in different high school classes that an applicant must have earned in order to be considered for admission. They are very high requirements - for example, one program said every English class must have been at least an A-minus.

Toronto has theee campuses; the main one is St. George but different programs are offered at different campuses. It has residential colleges within the university which is a huge advantage IMO. They have different flavors, offer housing and dining options, and provide a home base amidst the 60,000 students. However, housing is not guaranteed.

I haven't attended any of these schools but DC just went through the admissions process and we researched McGill and Toronto pretty thoroughly. Canadian friends tell us those are the top two universities in Canada. McGill has a bit of a reputation as being more sink-or-swim but may have a slight prestige edge and is half the size of Toronto.

Admissions is much more transparent than at US universities and there are no essays (definitely not at Toronto and I think not at McGill either).[/quote]
