Case managers are here to provide immediate support for students experiencing difficulties.

Case Managers take the time to listen to students’ concerns, offer guidance and support, and connect them with relevant resources at McGill and in the community. Their goal is to help students find approaches that support both their academic journey and overall well-being.

Drop by, email, or call to get in touch. Meetings can be in person or online.

How to get in touch

Walk-ins are welcome Monday to Friday, 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM. Meetings with Case Managers outside of these hours must be scheduled in advance.

Outside of these hours, please email or call.
