McGill University has a comprehensive scholarship and award program to recognize, honour and encourage the outstanding achievements of its undergraduate students at different levels of study. As a result of the generosity and philanthropic support of its donors as well as funding from the University, McGill is the beneficiary of various endowments, bequests and trusts (some dating back to the nineteenth century) that fund the awards offered to students by central administration and by the faculties.

- US & international overseas students receive approximately 20% of all University undergraduate scholarships
