À¦°óSMÉçÇø

When you are admitted to the University you are required to confirm your acceptance of the offer of admission on Minerva under the Applicant Menu at www.mcgill.ca/minerva and you must pay the required $200 deposit by credit card (Visa or MasterCard) at that time.

Fees are assessed on a term-by-term basis.

Electronic billing is the official means of delivering fee statements to all À¦°óSMÉçÇø students. Your e-bill includes all charges to your account, including tuition, fees, health insurance and other charges. The University generally produces e-bills at the beginning of the month and sends an email notification to your official À¦°óSMÉçÇø email address stating that your e-bill is available for viewing on Minerva. Charges or payments that occur after the statement date appear on the next month's statement, but you can view them immediately on the Account Summary by Term under the Student Accounts Menu on Minerva (this is the online dynamic account balance view).

Failure to check email on a regular basis in no way warrants the cancellation of interest charges and/or late payment fees. Refer to the Student Accounts website at www.mcgill.ca/student-accounts for information on payment due dates.

Late Payment Fees: If you have an outstanding balance greater than $100 on your account on October 30 (February 26 for the Winter term), you are charged a late payment fee of $35 over and above interest (increased to $50 in the Winter 2010).

You may choose to give access privileges to a guest on Minerva. These privileges include viewing e-bills/account summaries, tax receipts and e-payment.

The www.mcgill.ca/student-accounts/guest web page describes how to set up this access. You need to provide certain information about the individual you want to access your fee-related information. The guest will be contacted by email and provided with a link to use within a designated time period.

You can cancel guest access privileges at any time.

Note that Student Accounts staff may respond to questions from your authorized guest regarding the information to which they have been given access.

If you do not want to give a guest access privileges to Minerva, you can enter an alternative student billing email address on Minerva to which Student Accounts will send a copy of the monthly e-bill notification. However, if someone has been granted access as a guest and their guest email is the same as a student billing email address, the University will de-activate the student billing email address in order to only notify your guest about the billings once.

You should NOT share your PIN (personal identification number) with anyone, including a guest on Minerva. Guest Access allows your guest to view your account information without knowing your PIN.
