Frequently Asked Questions

Scholarships

I receive a Canada Award as a non-Quebec Canadian student for my undergraduate program. Who should I contact if I have more questions about this award?

For question about the Canada Award, you may contact Scholarships and Student Aid Office.

I received an entrance scholarship, an in-course award, or a renewable scholarship. How do I receive the money?

All 海外直播b站 scholarships are deposited to your 海外直播b站 fee account. You must register full-time, at least 12 credits in a semester, before the scholarship will be released. Scholarships are given in two installments: late August for the fall semester and early January for the winter semester.

I did not receive a scholarship for my first year at 海外直播b站. What other funding opportunities may I apply for? How can I apply for a scholarship?

Scholarships are merit-based awards, also known as In-Course Awards. There are no applications for most Schulich School of Music scholarships. Returning students will be automatically considered for in-course scholarships in June based on their merits in the preceding academic year. Students may also apply for need-based awards from 海外直播b站 or the provincial government to seek financial aid. Eligibility criteria for Music In-Course Awards, government aid or other financial need-based awards are found in Current Students above.

I am a recipient of an In-Course Award / Renewable Scholarship. This is my final year and I do not have enough credits to be full-time. Can I keep my scholarship?

This is possible. You must email studentawards.music [at] mcgill.ca to confirm the number of credits left for your program, including a study plan for your final year, in order to seek permission to keep the scholarship while studying part-time.

Fees

I auditioned for ensembles but am still waiting for the results. I have not yet completed my registration for the fall semester before the August 31st due date on my first e-Bill. What should I do?

You should still pay the full balance on the August e-Bill before the August 31st deadline to avoid a late payment fee. You can pay the fee difference in the revised e-Bill for September once you have finalized fall registration before the add/drop deadline without incurring a late registration fee.

The Student Affairs Office recommends to register courses for the full year. Am I expected to pay fees for the full year at the beginning of the semester?

No. When you register for courses in both fall and winter semesters before the fall add/drop deadline, you will only be billed for the fall semester courses in your first e-Bill. You will receive another e-Bill in December for the winter courses with a later fee payment deadline.

To view fees, log into Minerva > Student Accounts Menu > Account Summary by Term

I am not able to pay my fees in full before the payment deadline because I am waiting for government aid. What should I do?

You may apply for a tuition fee deferral via the Scholarships and Student Aid Office at the following link: Tuition payment deferral | Scholarships and Student Aid - 海外直播b站

I am a US citizen with dual Canadian citizenship. How can I be sure I am paying Canadian tuition fees?

You are required to provide proof of Canadian citizenship to be assessed the Canadian tuition fee rate. Find out which documents to provide and where to provide them
