Macdonald Campus Send-Offs for Incoming Students

The transition from high school or another university to McGill can be a challenging experience. That's why the McGill Alumni Association created the Send-Offs Program. Held every summer around the world, Send-Offs are a great way for incoming students to meet other freshmen from their area before arriving on campus.

The McGill Alumni Association would like to thank everyone who participated in our online send-off on June 28th, where we welcomed new students and their families. We look forward to seeing you on campus!

Get ready. Get excited. Go!
