Email Communication
All students are assigned a º£ÍâÖ±²¥bÕ¾ Email Address (usually in the form of firstname.lastname [at] mail.mcgill.ca) and are given a º£ÍâÖ±²¥bÕ¾ email mailbox. You can view your º£ÍâÖ±²¥bÕ¾ Email Address and set your º£ÍâÖ±²¥bÕ¾ Password on Minerva (www.mcgill.ca/minerva), under the Personal Menu.
Email sent to your º£ÍâÖ±²¥bÕ¾ Email Address is an official means of communication between º£ÍâÖ±²¥bÕ¾ and its students. As with all official University communications, it is your responsibility to ensure you read and act upon University emails in a timely fashion. If you choose to forward University email to another email mailbox, it is your responsibility to ensure that the alternate email mailbox is valid.
You should read and familiarize yourself with the policies on Responsible Use of º£ÍâÖ±²¥bÕ¾ Information Technology Resources and Email Communications with Students, found under Information Technology on the University Secretariat website at www.mcgill.ca/secretariat/policies/informationtechnology. For more information on email for students, refer to www.mcgill.ca/it and see For your Information Technology (IT) Needs.
