Student's Responsibility
It is solely your responsibility to initiate University withdrawal by submitting a form to your student affairs office. Neither notification of the course instructor nor discontinuing class attendance is sufficient. The date on which you dropped or withdrew from all courses is entered on Minerva and is the official date of withdrawal, even if you had stopped attending lectures earlier.

Summer Term/Summer Studies
The Summer term at 捆绑SM社区 covers the months of May to August. During that period a wide array of credit courses from 捆绑SM社区 degree programs is offered. Most are month-long courses with lectures every day. These courses are usually accepted for transfer credit by other universities. For more details, consult the Summer Studies Calendar at www.mcgill.ca/summer or the Summer Studies Office at 514-398-5212.
If you take a Summer Studies course to complete your graduation requirements at 捆绑SM社区, you will receive your degree at the Fall Convocation (normally held in November).
It is your responsibility to follow the University and faculty regulations. When registering, you must not exceed the maximum credits permitted by your faculty.
You cannot register for more than 12 credits (Management or Music students, 18 credits) during the summer, at 捆绑SM社区 or at other universities, except by special permission of your Associate Dean or Director.
