McGill University is launching a new award in an effort to offset the Quebec government’s recent tuition hike for out-of-province students, the school announced Tuesday.
The university says it will grant the $3,000 award to students starting in the affected undergraduate programs in the fall 2024 or winter 2025 terms.
The goal is to bring their tuition fees closer to what they were before the increase, the university said in a statement.
