Registration for Fall and Winter Terms (Including Additional Session and Non-Thesis Extension Students)

Registration for Fall and Winter Terms (Including Additional Session and Non-Thesis Extension Students)

All returning and new graduate students must register online at www.mcgill.ca/minerva. It is your responsibility to obtain departmental approval before registering on Minerva.

Courses may be added until the end of the course change period without penalty.

  • Returning Students:
  • Returning students register via Minerva between April 2, 2019 and August 14, 2019.
  • Newly-Admitted Students:
  • New students entering in September 2019 register via Minerva between July 3, 2019 and August 14, 2019.
  • New students entering in January 2020 register via Minerva between December 3, 2019 and January 6, 2020.
Note: If you fail to register during the normal registration period, you can register within the period designated by the University for late registration. You will, however, be charged a late registration fee. To avoid the late registration fee, students must access Minerva and register for REGN RCGR (the Registration Confirmation course) in both the Fall (CRN 2334) and Winter (CRN 2262) terms. New students entering in January 2020 only need to register for REGN RCGR in the Winter (CRN 2262) term.

Successful completion of registration is contingent upon acceptable academic standing in the previous session and payment of any previous outstanding fees and fines.

You must register (and pay fees) annually up to and including the term of graduation. Outstanding tuition fees must be paid before graduation. A graduate student registered in the Winter term who graduates in February will have their Winter registration and fees cancelled at the end of February.

Courses Taken in the School of Continuing Studies

Courses Taken in the School of Continuing Studies

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 you. You 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.

Programs, Courses and University Regulations—2019-2020 (last updated Aug. 13, 2019) (disclaimer)

Courses Taken as Extra to a Program

Courses Taken as Extra to a Program

Courses that you choose to take outside your program may be classified as "extra" provided that you choose this option at the time of registration. The course will be designated as "extra" ("RX" at the time of registration, and "E" once the course is graded) on your transcript, and the grade earned in that course will not be included in your grade point average (GPA) calculation. This option cannot be added to your record after the course change add/drop deadline. With the exception of those who are eligible for a Graphos tuition sponsorship (see below), you will be responsible for any tuition fees associated with an "extra" course.

Graphos Scholarly Communication Courses

Graphos Scholarly Communication Courses

The 成人VR视频 Writing Centre (www.mcgill.ca/mwc) offers several 1-credit courses in scholarly communication. Most of these courses form part of the Graphos program for graduate students and postdoctoral fellows. Graphos courses are not counted toward the requirements of a graduate program (the sole exception being the non-thesis Master's program in Second Language Education, toward which only CESL 641, CEAP 642, CEAP 661, and CEAP 665 may be counted).

Notes:
  • All Graphos courses are pass/fail
  • Thanks to a sponsorship program, nearly all doctoral students and most master's students can take Graphos courses at no extra cost provided that they do not withdraw at any time and submit all required assignments. For eligibility details, check this page.
  • Since these courses finish before the end of term, the Graphos add/drop and withdrawal (with and without refund) dates are often earlier than the standard University dates for full term courses.
  • Graphos courses are exempt from the "J" grade assignment percentage policy set out in the University Student Assessment Policy (see 3.1.7).
  • Before registering, please consult the Graphos website for further details.
