Advising

Advising for Bachelor of Arts Degree

Each student in the Faculty of Arts must be aware of the Faculty regulations as stated in the eCalendar and on the McGill, Faculty of Arts, and OASIS websites.

While departmental and faculty advisers and staff are always available to give advice and guidance, the ultimate responsibility for completeness and correctness of course selection and registration; for compliance with, and completion of, program and degree requirements; and for the observance of regulations and deadlines, rests with the student. It is the student’s responsibility to seek guidance from the Office of Advising and Student Information Services (OASIS) if in any doubt; misunderstanding or misapprehension will not be accepted as cause for dispensation from any regulation, deadline, program, or degree requirement.

If you need 96 or fewer credits to complete your degree requirements, you should consult with a departmental academic adviser in your proposed department of study to obtain advice and approval of your course selection. For a detailed description of advising and registration procedures, you should refer to the website for newly admitted undergraduate students, the Arts OASIS website, and your department's website.

If you need 97–120 credits to complete your degree requirements, you will normally be registered in a Freshman program until you complete your first year. You should consult with an adviser in Arts OASIS to review your course selection. For a detailed description of advising and registration procedures as a Freshman student, refer to University Regulations and Resources > Undergraduate > Registration and Undergraduate Advising; the newly admitted undergraduate students website; and the Arts OASIS website.
