Apply to Graduate
Most undergraduate students and non-thesis graduate students (master's, certificates, diplomas) must use Minerva (www.mcgill.ca/minerva) to apply to graduate. It is your responsibility to inform McGill of your intention to graduate. You need a minimum residency requirement of 60 credits at McGill to qualify for a McGill degree. The minimum CGPA required to graduate is 2.00.
The Application for Graduation is available on Minerva when you register for your final year, except if you are in the Faculty of Medicine or Faculty of Dentistry, where you are automatically flagged for graduation in your final year. For more information on how to apply on Minerva, go to www.mcgill.ca/minerva-students/records/graduation.
Deadlines:
Deadlines:
- Fall term graduation (courses completed in December for June convocation): You must apply on Minerva by the end of November.
- Winter term graduation (courses completed in April for June convocation): You must apply on Minerva by the end of February.

Note for the Faculties of Arts and Science (including B.A. & Sc.): As of summer 2010, requests normally made at your Faculty Student Affairs Office will need to be made at the Service Point (see www.mcgill.ca/students). However, it is important that you also see a Faculty adviser in Dawson Hall to talk about your options and the effects that your request may have on your studies. For more information, see www.mcgill.ca/students/advising.
