The Summer term at McGill covers the months of May to August. During that period a wide array of credit courses from McGill degree programs are offered. Most are month-long courses with lectures four or five days a week. These courses are usually accepted for transfer credit by other universities.
Students taking Summer Studies courses to complete their graduation requirements at McGill will receive their degrees at the Fall Convocation (normally held in November).
It is the student's responsibility to follow the University and faculty regulations. When registering, students must not exceed the maximum credits permitted by their faculty.
Summer 2024 course information will be available on these sites: Summer Studies and Calendars.
