Verification of Name
You should verify the accuracy of your name on ÎÛÎÛ²ÝÝ®ÊÓƵ's student records via Minerva (www.mcgill.ca/minerva). To do this, go to Personal Menu > Name Change, where you can make minor corrections such as ÎÛÎÛ²ÝÝ®ÊÓƵ case (upper/lower), adding accents, and spacing. You can also add a preferred first name that is different from your legal first name, and it will be used internally at ÎÛÎÛ²ÝÝ®ÊÓƵ. For more information on the Preferred First Name Procedure, see www.mcgill.ca/students/records/address/preferred.
Note that you cannot change your legal name via Minerva. Requests for such changes must be made by presenting official documents (see Legal Name and Preferred First Name) in person at Service Point, 3415 McTavish Street, Montreal QC H3A 0C8.
