McGill University
speciality: Sociology

I had a phenomenal experience at McGill. The professors I had the privilege of learning from were so well-versed in their fields and taught me more than I ever thought was possible in a 12 week (1 semester) block. The campus was large enough to be exciting and refreshing but not too large that it was unmanageable.

I love that McGill is very international and located in a multicultural city with such an interesting history. The psychology program has extremely educated professors who are very passionate about the subject they are teaching. Additionally, professors and teaching assistants offer a great deal of help and are very proactive when students need extra guidance.

Such a beautiful campus! I fell in love with it the soon I set my eyes on the towers reminiscent of Hogwarts. The actual application site; however, looks like it hasn’t been updated since 2000…which makes everything kind of difficult!

Attending McGill University has been one of my greatest experiences. As a woman of color, choosing the right university was a challenge. I had to think about whether I would be appreciated and respected in the establishment or hated and mocked. Yet, all my fears rapidly disappeared on the first day I had in my program. Studying Sociology has made me acknowledge how wonderful society can truly be. As I also study Psychology, I recognize that people’s behaviour can vary depending on various factors such as childhood, lifestyle, and health. These are simple things that I now think about every day. The truth is I enjoy analysing each circumstance that I find myself in. I have truly become a product of my program!
