R Score Admission Standards for CEGEP Students: September 2014
The values listed below are not the grades that will be required for admission in September 2015. Rather, they are the lowest grades used

Admission to McGill is competitive and subject to availability of space. As such, the minimum overall R Score required for entry may
fluctuate up or down by as 2.0 points or more in any given year.
McGill reviews CEGEP applications for admission based on the overall cote R as determined by the Ministry as well as a core average of
any prerequisite courses calculated by the Admissions Office. All results are taken into consideration, including those for any failed or
repeated courses. The courses used in calculating the core average differ depending on the program to which you have applied. For
example, a science core average includes all 101 biology, 201 mathematics, 202 chemistry, and 203 physics. An engineering core average
includes all 201 mathematics, 202 chemistry and 203 physics. A management core average includes all 201 mathematics courses. Please
consult our website for more information on prerequisite courses.
