Program Audit (PA)
As a student enrolled in a Bachelor of Music or Licentiate in Music program, you are given a program audit (PA) at time of admission. The PA is a shared Excel document on McGill’s One Drive that keeps track of your program progress. The Schulich School of Music defers to the PA, instead of Minerva’s myProgress, when evaluating how close you are to graduation.
Log-in instructions to your PA can be found here.
