Revision, February 2012. Start of revision.
All students are assigned a McGill Email Address (usually in the form of
firstname [dot] lastname [at] mcgill [dot] ca) and are given a McGill email mailbox. You
can view your McGill Email Address and set your McGill Password on Minerva (www.mcgill.ca/minerva),
under the Personal Menu.
Email sent to your McGill Email Address is an official means of
communication between McGill University and its students. As with all official
University communications, it is your responsibility to ensure you read and act
upon University emails in a timely fashion. If you choose to forward University
email to another email mailbox, it is your responsibility to ensure that the
alternate email mailbox is valid.
You should read and familiarize yourself with the Code of Conduct for Users of McGill Computing Facilities
and Email Communications with Students policies found under
Information Technology on the University Secretariat website at
www.mcgill.ca/secretariat/policies/informationtechnology.
For more information on email for
students, refer to
www.mcgill.ca/it and see For your Information Technology (IT) needs.
Note for Continuing Studies: The above services are not available if you are registered in short courses or seminars not recorded on the official McGill transcript.
