Housing and Food

While you’re at McGill you’ll be staying in our modern dorm style residences, steps away from the downtown campus and the charming and artistic Plateau neighborhood.

Rooms are double occupancy and offer all the comforts you could hope for: double beds, a private bathroom, air conditioning, WiFi! McGill Summer Academy staff are on site at all times.

Our MSA Team Leaders work diligently to pair all our students with a fellow MSA participant so they have an enjoyable two weeks as roommates and become fast friends! We use the information students submit on their sleep and study habits, their most notable personality traits, their hobbies, and any other comments students choose to share with us. We are quite successful at roommate pairings, so not to worry! Note that we do not consider roommate requests. Should a single occupancy room be vital to a student, students and their caregivers may send a request and a short explanation to us via email. All requests are reviewed by the MSA Coordinator and may be granted on a case by case basis.

Meals will offer a variety of options to accommodate specific dietary restrictions. Two meals per day (breakfast and lunch) are included in the program fees. Summer Academy students must have adequate funds to cover the cost of their evening meals. McGill Food and Dining Services is nut-free.
