The campus is so gorgeous, especially on a sunny day! We came on a Sunday so a lot of the buildings were closed, but we were still able to enjoy the architecture from the outside, as well as take a look in the Redpath Library.

Very cool university! Perfect location. Classic-looking buildings with modern equipment inside. Visited a chemistry lab - nicely organized. Also the book store is good, bought a couple souvenirs. Parking is expensive tho on Rue University.

Walking through University to reach out Mount Royal Park, gave a chance to see Pro-Palestinian camps and old academic facilities including Arts Building, Redpath Museum, Burnside Hall, McLennan Library Building, and McIntyre Medical Sciences Building. It is a must for Montreal tourists to see it!

McGill University, one of the top 3 universities in Canada, stands out not only for its academic excellence but also for its rich history and stunning campus. Located in the heart of Montreal, McGill is known for its world-class research programs and diverse student body. The university’s historic buildings, like the iconic Arts Building and the Redpath Museum, blend beautifully with more modern structures, creating a unique atmosphere that mixes tradition with innovation. Its central location provides easy access to everything Montreal has to offer, making it a perfect spot for both students and visitors. Whether you’re exploring the academic landmarks or simply strolling through the campus, McGill offers a memorable experience.

McGill University is one of the top universities in Canada and the world. It’s also one of the few English-language institutions in the city of Montreal. Conveniently located in the heart of downtown, right next to McGill Metro station, the campus is easily accessible. The university has a charming, historic feel, with many buildings dating back to the 19th century, surrounded by green lawns and trees. The quality of education is excellent — McGill graduates are well-prepared and often find jobs quickly after graduation.
