members of MACES, registered in credit and non-credit courses in
the Fall, Winter, and Summer terms. Students enrolled in credit
courses are charged $6.60 per credit and students in non-credit
courses are charged the corresponding amount ($6.60 per billing
hour, typically three per course).

Administrative Charges
Administrative Charges
The University assesses a number of administrative charges to students, which include:
Registration Charge – All students in courses and programs are assessed a registration charge.
Information Technology Charge – The purpose of the information technology charge is to enhance certain technological services provided to students as well as to provide training and support to students in the use of new technologies.
Transcripts and Diploma Charge – The University assesses a transcripts and diploma charge to all students. This entitles currently enrolled students to order transcripts free of charge and covers the costs of producing diplomas and some of the costs associated with convocation ceremonies. Students who attend their convocation may be responsible for some additional costs. A fee per official transcript is applicable if you have not been registered at McGill in the last 12 months. Please see mcgill.ca/student-records/transcripts for further information.
Copyright Fee – All students in courses and programs are charged a copyright compliance fee. This fee covers the cost of using material protected by copyright. It is levied to comply with all Quebec and Canadian copyright laws.
General Administrative Charge – This fee originated from increases in ancillary fees that were allowed by the Quebec Government. The University complies with the Quebec government's regulation on administrative fee increases by applying the same indexation factor that the government applies to tuition to this charge. A portion of the amount continues to be directed to Athletics (except in the School of Continuing Studies).
