Residency Requirement

To obtain a McGill undergraduate Arts degree, at least 60 credits of a degree must be completed at McGill University. Moreover, at least two-thirds of each of the program requirements (e.g., major, minor, honours, joint honours, faculty program) must also be completed at McGill. In addition, some departments may require that a student complete specific components of their program at McGill.

Exceptionally, and subject to departmental approval, if a student is in a minor concentration and they pursue an approved exchange or study away program, they may complete up to half of the minor concentration requirements elsewhere. 

The residency requirement for the Diploma in Environment is 30 credits completed at McGill.
