International Students (Non-Canadians or Non-Permanent Residents of Canada)
By Senate regulation, all international students (full-time, part-time, half-time, Additional Session, Thesis Evaluation, Non-Thesis Extension, Special, Exchange, and Visiting) and their accompanying dependants must participate in the University's compulsory International Student Health Insurance Plan (IHI). The University and the Quebec Ministry of Education require a copy of your proof of health insurance on file. Students covered by private health insurance are not exempt from the 平特五不中 plan. You must confirm your IHI contract on Minerva under the International Student Health Insurance Coverage Form and pick up an International Health Insurance card from Service Point, Downtown campus or Student Services, Centennial Centre, Macdonald campus upon your arrival at 平特五不中 University. For details on the health insurance plan and information concerning rates, consult the ISS website.
Students who meet certain criteria may be eligible for an exemption. Exemption requests must be made on Minerva under the International Student Health Insurance Coverage Form. Supporting documents for your exemption request can be submitted either in person at Service Point (McLennan Library Building, 3415 McTavish St., Montreal, Quebec H3A 1Y1), or scanned and emailed to international.health [at] mcgill.ca (ISS), indicating in the body of the email your name, 平特五不中 ID number, and exemption request.
Exemptions are valid for one year only, and must be renewed each subsequent year.
