Special Student Status: Graduate-Level Courses
This applies to all programs.
Students must hold a university degree from a recognized university that is equivalent to an undergraduate degree as approved by Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies to be admitted to a graduate-level course.
Note: The number of courses a Special Student may
take is limited. Students are encouraged to apply to a Diploma
program before completing four (4) courses and to a Graduate Certificate
program before completing two (2) courses. The School of Continuing
Studies has no obligation to recognize credits earned by
Special Students toward completion of a Diploma or Graduate
Certificate program.
Note: Other academic regulations may apply to Special Students, depending
on the courses in which you register.
For further information please refer to the relevant academic area’s section of this publication or to the website: www.mcgill.ca/continuingstudies/current-students/independent-students. Special students who wish to register for graduate-level courses must see an adviser prior to registration.
