| PRO |
CON |
- You can get started on your core courses in your U0 year
|
- You will have to declare a major/concentration/minor sooner and better plan your future studies.
- Your second year might be challenging to find courses because many courses are restricted to U2, U3 students when you will only be U1.
- You need to be ready to encounter scheduling challenges in the future and you need to be flexible in taking other courses (ex. electives).

If you think you might have advanced standing (APs) credits please contact an adviser in the bcom.mgmt [at] mcgill.ca (BCom Office). In the meantime you must register as a U0 student. Make sure your final results are sent to McGill, as soon as they are available.
For every 3 credits of Advanced Standing received on your transcript, students may replace an elective by a CORE Management course (preferably in the Winter term). You MUST see an advisor to register for these courses (space permitting).
