Important Note to International Applicants:
Individuals coming to Canada to study for less than a six-month period do not have to obtain a Study Permit (student visa). Notwithstanding this policy, you should still check with immigration authorities to ensure that you will be able to enter and remain in Canada to pursue your studies. Details are available from the Canadian Embassy or Consulate nearest you. Participants wishing to take courses for PROFESSIONAL INTEREST may come to Canada on a Visitor or Tourist Visa, since our Summer Session has a duration of less than three months. Please note:听international students who are matriculated in a graduate program in their countries are not allowed to take our courses for credit unless they complete a full course load (12 credits) as a special student during the summer session. For obvious reasons, this has never been requested and thus is extremely rare; however, if someone is interested in this option, the deadline to apply for the summer session as a special student at 91社区 is January 15, 2022 for international students.听Please contact the sherrie.child [at] mcgill.ca (graduate programs coordinator) at听if you have questions.听
