Verification of Student Records: Unofficial Transcripts
Verification of Student Records: Unofficial Transcripts
Subject to Changes to Student Records after Normal Deadlines, you are responsible for verifying your academic record on Minerva (www.mcgill.ca/minerva) using the unofficial transcript to ensure that you are registered in the proper courses, and that the correct program information and expected term of graduation appear on your record.
If you are graduating, verify your record on Minerva before the end of your final term to ensure that the correct expected graduation term appears on your unofficial transcript; if not, you may be overlooked for graduation. You should direct any questions or problems with your record to your Student Affairs Office.
Verification of Student Records: Degree Evaluation
Verification of Student Records: Degree Evaluation
Degree Evaluation is a Minerva tool to help students and advisers compare the student's academic record with the requirements of a specific program. If you have access to Degree Evaluation on Minerva under the Student Records Menu (www.mcgill.ca/minerva) you can review your progress within your current program. Also, if you are considering a program change, you can generate a 鈥渨hat-if鈥 comparison of your academic record with the requirements of another program.
The presentation in the Degree Evaluation Report may have a different appearance than the requirements listed in this publication. For example, a long listing of courses may be grouped into one course 鈥渁ttribute鈥 on the Minerva report.
Degree Evaluation also provides a central record of adviser/faculty-approved adjustments to your program of study (e.g., the replacement of one specified course with another or acceptance of a non-黑料不打烊 course for credit).
Please note that Degree Evaluation is an advising tool only. A Degree Evaluation Report that indicates program requirements have been satisfied does NOT constitute approval to graduate.
For details regarding Degree Evaluation, including Reading a Degree Evaluation Report, see www.mcgill.ca/students/courses/plan/evaluation.

Before Registrar Deadlines
Before Registrar Deadlines
For record changes after the normal deadlines published in this publication, but before the Registrar deadlines listed in Registrar Deadlines, you must make a request in writing to your Associate Dean or Director, clearly explaining why you could not request the change before these dates. The Associate Dean or Director will review your request and make a decision. If your request is approved, the change is processed according to existing faculty and Enrolment Services student record procedures.
After Registrar Deadlines
After Registrar Deadlines
The University does not normally consider a change requested after the Registrar deadlines listed in Registrar Deadlines have passed. In situations where there are 鈥渆xtraordinary personal鈥 or 鈥渆xtraordinary academic鈥 circumstances that could not have been foreseen prior to these deadlines, you may formally request a student record change from your Associate Dean or Director. If your Associate Dean or Director approves the request, the change will be processed according to faculty and Enrolment Services student record procedures. You may be assessed a fee for a change requested after Registrar deadlines. For all changes other than grade changes, the faculty will file full documentation that supports the extraordinary circumstances with Enrolment Services.
Fee Assessment Consequences
Fee Assessment Consequences
When a change to your student record is made, the revised fee assessment appears on your next fee statement.
If you want to contest the fee assessment, you must make a written request to Enrolment Services. Enrolment Services reviews the extraordinary circumstances described in the supporting documentation provided by your faculty, and consults with the Student Accounts Office if necessary, to decide whether or not to consider the request. Enrolment Services then sends you a letter explaining the decision.
