ceelbe Posted July 8, 2021 Report Share Posted July 8, 2021 We're allowed to have 3 courses in progress during the school year at the time of our application. Does anyone know if I take a science prereq that ends roughly September 25, and then take 3 others over fall/winter, if this would count for 4 courses in progress, or if the one ending in September would be seen as a summer course? I'm not sure if there's an official cut off date, like September 1st or something. I emailed admissions to ask as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember someone was having the same issue and they were told as long as u have ur grade by the time you are submitting your app, ( i.e. as long as the grade is on ur transcript) you should be fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just posting this here for future reference in case anyone was wondering. McGill got back to me and told me that all basic science prerequisite courses at Athabasca are accepted as prereqs for McGill med, and that the home kit/virtual labs are accepted as well, and that so long as the course is completed (final grades on transcript etc) before the November 1 deadline of when you submit your application, then you can still have an additional 3 classes in progress (so long as you get those grades by the May 31 deadline). Hope this helps someone! veromedico 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
