According to the Law on Information Access and the Privacy Act, McGill employees are not permitted to release any personal or nominative information. All requests should be forwarded to the Student Affairs Office, Frank Dawson Adams Building, Room 22. Request for statistics should also be forwarded to the Student Affairs Office.

Summary information on our students or graduates can be released provided it cannot be traced back to any one individual or individuals. For example, it is NOT permissible to release the Graduation List, but it is permissible to release statistics on the number of graduates per department or as a whole.

If personal information is to be released at the request of members of the public, firms, government, etc., written permission must first be received from the individual.
