A bachelor’s degree (or equivalent, as recognized by McGill University) is a minimum requirement, preferably in translation, localization, communication studies, linguistics, or modern languages. Applicants must otherwise have a bachelor’s degree in any discipline, including STEM fields, with coursework in a language- or communication-related discipline, or with at least two years of language- or communication-related industry experience.
A minimum Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA) of 3.0 out of a possible 4.0 is required, or a Grade Point Average (GPA) of 3.2 out of 4.0 in the last two years of full-time studies.
An interview-based assessment will be conducted to determine whether the program is a good fit for the applicant.
Applicants will also be required to present a written statement of purpose (1,000 words) in English, as well as a summary in French or another language (choice of language is subject to faculty availability). In their statement, applicants should explain why their background and experience makes them an ideal candidate for the program, and how success in the program will enable them to achieve their professional goals. A current curriculum vitae should accompany the statement.
Applicants with a bachelor’s degree from outside Canada, the United States, Australia, New Zealand, or the United Kingdom are required to take the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL). A minimum score of 100 for the Internet-based TOEFL exam test (iBT; 600 for the paper-based test, PBT) with each component score not less than 20 is required. Please use the McGill code 0935 when writing the exam.
Applicants may write the IELTS (International English Language Testing Systems) instead of the TOEFL exam. A minimum overall band of 7.0 is required, with each component score not less than 7.0. IELTS test scores must be sent electronically by IELTS directly to McGill University using the McGill code 0935.
