Program details
Overview
This is McGill's Bachelor of Science in Nursing, offered through the Ingram School of Nursing. The program uses a strengths-based teaching model built around small learning groups of six to eight students, and clinical placements begin from the first nursing course, with hands-on experience gained in a McGill teaching hospital or an affiliated centre. Coursework covers professional nursing topics including critical care, infection prevention, wound care, and interprofessional teamwork. The page does not describe distinct entry streams, delivery mode, or campus details beyond the clinical-site placements it references. It is aimed at students whose goal is to become a skilled and knowledgeable nurse practitioner or researcher, and the program states its intent to prepare students to handle complex and contemporary nursing issues as they become health care professionals. It suits students who want an early, sustained clinical component built into their studies from the outset, learning in small cohorts alongside classroom instruction rather than through a lecture-only format, and who are aiming toward direct patient-care or nursing research careers.
Requirements
Admission Requirements: This McGill Nursing program page states no admission-specific criteria of its own; it directs applicants to the university's general, background-specific admission requirements and adds no extra prerequisite courses, immunization, or interview conditions beyond that general information. Under McGill's institution-wide rules, Quebec CEGEP graduates are admitted directly from their DEC into the program; Canadian applicants from other provinces are assessed on their senior secondary record, for example Ontario applicants on the average of their 'Top 6' 4U/4M courses, with at least four of the six and all prerequisites at the 4U level; international applicants are assessed by their own school system and are normally admitted with an extra Freshman (U0) year. Admission is by academic record only, and meeting the published minimums does not guarantee a place. English proficiency is required unless exempt: IELTS Academic 6.5 with no band below 6.0, TOEFL iBT 90, Duolingo English Test 125, or PTE Academic 65; McGill additionally requires proof of French proficiency for the BSc Nursing.
Application Details
Application Deadline:For Quebec CEGEP/high-school applicants, the B.Sc.(N.) Nursing application deadline is 1 February 2027 (application only) rather than the general 1 March 2027 university deadline.
