SAT Scores are optional
This university has a test-optional policy.
For U.S. high school applicants, McGill offers a test‑optional policy for the SAT and ACT for Fall 2025 and 2026 entry, allowing applicants to exclude standardized test scores from application review. Applicants who choose to submit SAT or ACT scores may have them considered in conjunction with other academic credentials, but scores are not required for admission in most undergraduate programs.
Note: Some programs or scholarships may still recommend or require SAT scores. Always verify the latest admission criteria on the official university website.
