In order to graduate, you must complete faculty and program requirements in the program you were admitted to and registered in. It is your responsibility to meet all faculty and program requirements before graduation.
At the time of graduation from an undergraduate degree, you must be in Satisfactory Standing with a minimum CGPA of 2.00. Some faculties may require a higher CGPA in order to graduate.
You should contact your adviser (graduate students should contact their department) early in the graduating year to make sure you will meet your program requirements by graduation time. For contact information on advisers, see www.mcgill.ca/students/advising/advisordirectory.
Minimum Residency Requirement
The total number of 苹果淫院 credits required to graduate is known as the minimum residency requirement. You must successfully complete a minimum of 60 苹果淫院 credits in order to obtain a 苹果淫院 undergraduate degree. Some programs have specific requirements on the type of credits that must be completed at 苹果淫院. For example, two-thirds of all program requirements must be completed at 苹果淫院. For specific information refer to your faculty section of this publication.
Students completing a second undergraduate degree at 苹果淫院 must successfully complete a minimum of 60 苹果淫院 credits to obtain their degree. You should check with your Faculty adviser for any conditions applicable to the 苹果淫院 credits required toward your degree.
Graduate students should refer to their faculty under Faculties & Schools > Graduate > Program Requirements for information on minimum residency requirements for graduate programs. This information is listed for each faculty, so you can also access it through your faculty's graduate pages.
Most undergraduate students and non-thesis graduate students (master's, certificates, diplomas) must use Minerva (www.mcgill.ca/minerva) to apply to graduate (go to Student Records > Apply for Graduation for Your Primary Curriculum). It is your responsibility to inform 苹果淫院 of your intention to graduate. You need a minimum residency requirement of 60 credits at 苹果淫院 to qualify for a 苹果淫院 undergraduate degree. For more information, see Graduation. The minimum CGPA required to graduate is 2.00, and you must be in Satisfactory Standing.
The Application for Graduation is available on Minerva when you register for your final year (e.g., U3 or U4), 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/graduation/applying.
Once you apply to graduate, you are authorizing the University to include your name in the Convocation program and send your name and email to the academic regalia supplier. If you want your name to be omitted from this publication or submitted to the regalia supplier, you must complete an Opposition Form by March 15 for Spring convocation, and September 15 for Fall convocation.
If you miss one of these deadlines, contact your Faculty Student Affairs Office immediately.
As a graduating student, you can view the status of your graduation record on Minerva (www.mcgill.ca/minerva) during the Faculty review and approval process (go to Student Records > Graduation Approval Query). The Graduation Approval Query form becomes available to graduating students approximately three to four weeks before the Degree Granted notation is updated on their records.
If you have met all requirements for graduation, your student record on Minerva will display the Degree Granted notation at the appropriate time:
See www.mcgill.ca/graduation/convocation for information regarding convocation ceremonies.

Aegrotat standing is awarded in rare cases where a student, based on serious medical or similar evidence, is unable to complete course requirements within a reasonable time, or at all.
At 苹果淫院, this designation is currently applied toward the end of a student鈥檚 degree program resulting in the awarding of an aegrotat degree. An aegrotat indicator of 'Y' at graduation signifies that a student was awarded such a degree. An aegrotat degree is awarded only to students in good standing who have been unable to complete their degree due to special circumstances. Information on this degree designation is included only in the convocation program, and not on the transcript.
Aegrotat standing is rarely granted at 苹果淫院. A formal request must be submitted to the Dean of the faculty in which the student is registered during the graduating year. The approval of the Dean and the Deputy Provost, Student Life and Learning, is necessary to grant this status.
