Housing
Type of housing: Apartment/House
Arranged by: Independently - I had no other choice
If returning, I would choose: Apartment/House
Why?
It is pretty exceptional that people live on campus. Only Frechman do. It is also more fun to live in an own appartement, with other students

Academic
Course recommendations
If you do an MBA exchange at McGill the wise thing when choosing courses is the following list:
1. choose 4-5 courses in advance according to the instructions on the web or the material from the faculty
2. Go "shopping" for both the chosen courses and other courses that interest you. During the first two weeks you can make necessary changes free of charge and pick the courses that you really like.
