Course Registration

Students taking summer courses register within Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies deadlines on Minerva at www.mcgill.ca/minerva after completing a Minerva Course Selection Form and obtaining departmental approval.

Summer Term of Residence Students in thesis programs who wish to register for a Summer term to count as part of their residence requirements must advise their department in March and complete the appropriate Summer Registration Form in April. Newly-admitted students beginning their graduate thesis program in a Summer Term of Residence can get a 100% refund (less $200 minimum or registration deposit if applicable) up to and including the May 15th withdrawal date. Students in thesis programs, who at the end of the Winter term are continuing in their programs are expected to devote the summer to research and are considered 鈥渃ontinuing students鈥�.

In the Fall and Winter terms, students may add credit courses (500 level or higher) offered through the School of Continuing Studies (SCS) directly on Minerva. Please see www.mcgill.ca/importantdates for deadlines.

Non-credit general interest or languages courses cannot be added directly by the student. Students may register for these courses in person at the SCS, where the course(s) will be added to their record as 鈥�Extra鈥� to their program and course fees will be charged.

Summer courses offered through the SCS cannot be added directly by the student. To add these courses, students must bring a copy of their approved Minerva Course Selection Form to Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies where, subject to space availability and program controls, the course(s) will be added to their record. To register for courses offered through the SCS, students must be registered in their graduate studies program. All courses taken at SCS must be completed unless the course has been dropped on Minerva according to SCS course drop/withdrawal deadlines. GPS reserves the right to place limitations on the number of SCS courses taken for any one program. Approval from GPS must be obtained prior to registration.

No student may register in two degree programs or in two departments or faculties or two institutions concurrently without special permission granted by Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies. Students are advised that permission is never granted to attempt two full-time programs concurrently. Letters of recommendation, including details of the proportions of time that the student intends to allot to each program, must be received from the Chair of each department concerned. Each year, a progress report must be submitted from the two departments concerned to GPS before a student in this category will be permitted to register.

Candidates for master's degrees must complete the degree within three years of initial registration. If the degree is pursued strictly on a less than full-time basis, it must be completed within five years of initial registration.

In exceptional cases, a student who wishes to submit a thesis, or to complete outstanding degree requirements, after withdrawal may do so only on the recommendation of the department concerned. A graduate application must be submitted by stated deadlines and re-admission fees will apply. The final decision rests with GPS.

By annual registration, all doctoral candidates may maintain their connection with the University for four years after completing their residence requirements.

The object of these regulations is to encourage candidates to complete their theses and qualify for their degree without undue delay.

Council of the FGSR - February 2, 1996

Departments have the right to ask students to withdraw from the program if progress is not satisfactory, or if they have failed two courses required for their program, or for lack of performance in research. Please see Failure Policy.
