MSc in Urban Planning

Using uApply, you must upload your current curriculum vitae, including a summary of your academic background, professional experience, and other relevant activities (e.g., community involvement, volunteer work, etc.).

Using uApply, you must upload unofficial copies of transcripts for your complete university-level academic record to date, including ALL programs (complete, incomplete, and/or in progress). Incomplete or inaccurate applications that are submitted can significantly delay or even prevent an admission decision. Therefore, you must ensure that your application satisfies these conditions before you hit 'submit' : 1- On UApply, the title of the degree must match what is actually indicated on the transcripts, e.g., B.A., B.Sc., B.S.Sc., Licence. If you cannot find a complete match, please enter 'Bachelor' or 'Master' 2- The year that a degree was granted must match what is actually indicated on the transcripts 3- A copy of the degree certificate (diploma) will need to be uploaded if the transcript does not indicate that a degree has been conferred. For degrees that follow the British system, please include the overall standing if applicable 4- Each transcript must include a key or legend 5- A separate record must be created for every institution that is mentioned in the transcripts that are uploaded, even if the grades for those institutions are already reflected. This includes institutions where transfer credits were received, or where exchange terms were taken. The exceptions are high schools and Quebec CEGEPs.

We must receive two (2) letters of recommendation, at least one of which must be from a current or past professor; these are now collected online through uApply. Within 48 hours of submitting your application fee, an email will be sent to your referees. The contact information that you provide must contain a valid institutional email address for each of these individuals, who are required to answer a series of online questions. They may also upload an additional free-form letter at the time of submission.

Using uApply, you must upload a personal statement of one to two pages, explaining your motivation for applying to the School, area(s) of specific interest, and longer-term career goals.

1- TOEFL/IELTS 2- GRE is NOT required (but if you request that an official electronic score be sent to McGill University, we will look at it during the admissions process!)
