Exemption from International Tuition Fees may be claimed by students in certain categories. Such students, if eligible, are then assessed at the Quebec student rate (certain categories may be assessed at the Canadian tuition rate). These categories and the required supporting documentation for each of them may be viewed at www.mcgill.ca/legaldocuments. Further information regarding these reductions of International Tuition Fees by the Quebec government is available on the Student Accounts website (www.mcgill.ca/student-accounts) under Tuition and Fees – General Information.

MIDAs Program

The MIDAs program is being phased out in favour of a graduate funding mechanism that allows for the development of funding programs at the Faculty level. The MIDAs program accepted its last cohort of students in the Winter 2011 semester. International Ph.D. students currently receiving the MIDAs have been grandfathered in the program and will continue to receive the MIDAs as long as they maintain their eligibility. For more information, please consult the Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies website at: www.mcgill.ca/gps/students/fellowships/information.
