McGill Graduate Financial Aid

The Scholarships & Student Aid Office administers an In-Course Financial Aid Program that provides modest amounts of loans and/or bursaries to currently enrolled graduate students in need of supplemental financial assistance. The office does not have the capacity to replace core funding nor the ability to significantly cover a great deal of a graduate student's costs.
