McGill University Survival Guide Part Two
Hi there! I graduated from university and there were many student services I wished I knew about before I graduated. So I decided to create the McGill University survival guide to capture all the great resources at McGill.
You can also find the McGill University Student Guide Part One here. The first guide has information on volunteer openings, free food, cheap textbooks, on-campus jobs, study resources and more.
McGill University Survival Guide Part Two Overview
Part two includes information on career resources, housing information, health and wellness services, student deals, things to do in Montreal and transportation information.
