MyCreds™ and McGill
Students can access certain documents such as official electronic transcripts, custom letters, documents, and forms via their MyCreds™ e-wallet.
™ is a secure document sharing platform built in collaboration with ARUCC (the Association of Registrars of the Universities and Colleges of Canada) that gives students and alumni of Canadian universities and colleges access to a secure digital credential sharing wallet via an online platform.
™ is used by McGill’s Enrolment Services to allow students and alumni to share their digital credentials with a third party via a secure online platform. When a document such as a custom letter or form is issued to a student or alumnus of McGill by Enrolment Services, they receive an email, which will prompt them to log into the MyCreds™ portal with their McGill credentials, where they can view and pay a fee to securely share their document with a third party. Documents shared through MyCreds™ contain digital signatures. When students/alumni share their documents with third parties through the portal, these digital signatures ensure their authenticity as a document issued by Ď㽶ĘÓƵ.

Official Transcript
An official transcript provides a complete academic record of a student’s time at McGill and must be requested through the university. Official transcripts bear the Registrar’s signature and can be used for transferring to other institutions, confirming education or credential verifications, for professional employment verifications, as well as other third-party agencies or authorities.
