When you reach out to SOUSA, you're connecting to Degree advisors for the Bachelor of Science (B.Sc.) and the Bachelor of Arts & Science (B.A. & Sc.).

Do you need a Program advisor instead?  Visit our Advising website to see how each type of advisor can support you.

Please note that Degree advisors CANNOT help with:

  • Program requirements: If you have questions about courses or requirements for your programs, these need to be directed to your Program advisor.
  • Courses that are full or restricted: Registration for a course is controlled by the Department that offers the course. SOUSA advisors cannot help you register for a course that is full or restricted, you must contact the Program advisor for that department.
  • Admissions, legal documents and tuition: These questions/issues are handled by Service Point.

Book an appointment with your Degree advisor

All students in the Faculty of Science are assigned a Degree advisor. You can find the name of your advisor on your unofficial transcript in Minerva (at the top of your transcript, under your name, ID and email). If you do not see an advisor name on your transcript, please email advisor.science [at] mcgill.ca (advisor[dot]science[at]mcgill[dot]ca) 

Individual advising sessions with your advisor are available on a first-come first-served basis. Please email advisor.science [at] mcgill.ca (advisor[dot]science[at]mcgill[dot]ca) if you need a link to your advisor's booking pages, where you can book your own in-person or online session. 

Be sure to:

  • Use your McGill email account.
  • Include your ID number.
  • Include the name of your assigned advisor (this can be found on your Minerva transcript).

You can also email your Degree advisor directly (firstname.lastname [at] mcgill.ca (firstname[dot]lastname[at]mcgill[dot]ca)) and they will respond as quickly as possible. 

Note that during the Graduation review period (end of May) and the Add/Drop period (start of each term), we receive a high volume of emails and appointment requests. Please expect longer wait times and avoid sending multiple emails. We appreciate your patience and will do our utmost to respond to inquiries as quickly as possible.
