What are Official Documents at McGill?
What are Official Documents at McGill?
McGill requires official versions of all transcripts and statements of Academic Standing from schools or other education institutions. Test scores and examination results must also be official. At McGill, 鈥渙fficial鈥 signifies that the school, educational institution, or Examination Board, for students who write Advanced-level examinations, sends directly to 香蕉视频 without intermediary all transcripts, statements of Academic Standing, test scores, and examination results. We do not accept as 鈥渙fficial鈥: copies of documents certified by a notary, commissioner of oaths, Canadian Education Centre, or embassy staff member. We do not make conditional decisions based on unofficial transcripts or statements of Academic Standing.
We recognize that in some countries, it is difficult to arrange for schools to send official transcripts. We also recognize that individuals who no longer reside in the country where they studied face particular challenges in arranging for official documentation. Should this be the case, please communicate this to us in writing and, if warranted, we will consider extending the deadline for document submissions.
