Official Transcripts

Google Code for Remarketing Tag - Bloom

A transcript is a record of courses, grades, and degree(s) earned by a student at an institution. Official transcripts (or certified copies) must be sent by the issuing institution (e.g., University/School/School Board/Ministry) directly to McGill University in sealed envelopes or electronically.

Requesting Transcripts

Once you have submitted your application, the Admissions office will review your file and send you an email with further information on the documents we need and how to provide them. Please do not request official documents from your institution before we have sent you this email.

CEGEP students: If you studied in Quebec and provided us with your Permanent Code, CEGEP transcripts will automatically be forwarded to McGill University.

Document Requirements

Official transcripts must:

  • Be recently issued and endorsed by the home institution (by signature, seal)
  • Be in French or English (Transcripts in a language other than English or French must be accompanied by an English or French translation provided by the institution issuing the transcript, or by a Canadian or OTTIAQ certified/licensed translator.)
  • Include all courses, credits, and grades for each year of study
  • Clearly indicate that a degree was awarded (degree title and date issued). If it does not, proof of degree completion (degree certificate/diploma) must also be provided.
