Skyscrapers, landmark buildings, hotels, restaurants, bars, and retail outlets of all persuasions create and fuel this eclectic cityscape. Home to three of Montreal’s four universities, Mcgill and Concordia (English) and Université du Québec à Montréal (UQAM – French), the city’s downtown core often resembles a seamless international campus.
Moreover, Montreal was recently rated the No. 1 city in the entire world by Quaquarelli Symonds — a recognized authority in this sphere — for the congenial and affordable quality of life the city offers to its extensive student community.
