Programs for high school students

Our programs are targeted at increasing the knowledge of high school students in different educational programs and careers, so they can better plan their post-secondary studies and gain confidence in applying to post-secondary institutions. We currently work with underrepresented students in Montreal and Toronto high schools.

Explore McGill

Explore McGill is an opportunity to introduce Quebec high school students in grades 9, 10, 11 and CEGEP to university life and learning. This fun and inspiring day includes hands-on workshops hosted at various McGill faculties by faculty members and students, as well as a lunch at our beautiful downtown campus.

In Community-Explore McGill

In-Community Explore brings the Explore experience to you! We recognize that not all schools and CEGEPs in Quebec are located near our McGill campus. We have launched this initiative to share the different areas of studies, resources and services offered at McGill with students throughout Quebec.

McGill University is on land that long served as a site of meeting and exchange amongst
Indigenous peoples, including the Haudenosaunee and Anishinabeg nations. We acknowledge
and thank the diverse Indigenous people whose footsteps have marked this territory on which
peoples of the world now gather.
