I know the cutoff is 9.5 but when I look at my GPA on mosaic, I notice they round to the first decimal so if my cGPA is 9.475 will that round to 9.5 and make me qualified for this or does it have to be 9.5 or above unrounded? Thanks for any input!

McMaster truncates, they don't round. Your cGPA will be considered 9.4.

Do they consider only the current year when calculating (fall and winter semesters only)? What about when graduating, do they consider final year only or all undergraduate years?

Your year GPA is different from your cGPA & both will show on your transcript. The first is only your grades from that year alone and the second cGPA (cumulative) is the average of all courses you have taken up until then.

Dean's list will only account for a single year alone, not the cumulative average of all years.

I believe cGPA is used when determining who graduates with honours, but you can check the course calendar to make sure. It's all outlined there.
