Transcript Questions
Q: I failed a course, repeated it and got a better mark. How will my GPA be calculated?
If a course is repeated, McMaster uses both grades, the failed course and its repeat.
Q: I left my country as a refugee and cannot obtain a transcript. What should I do?
If you cannot obtain a transcript from your home country you must attend university for at least two years in Canada before being eligible to apply to the Medical Program. In the absence of verifiable documents (transcripts received directly from your University), McMaster is unable to assess your credentials.
Please note that you MUST use the services of World Education Services to have your foreign transcript evaluated.
Q: I did a co-op program. Are work term reports required along with the transcripts?
Work term reports are not required.
