Confidentiality

The Office of the Dean of Students (ODoS) upholds Quebec privacy legislation, which does not permit any information about a student to be released to any third party without the student’s prior written consent. This includes instructors, members of a student’s family, and friends. Some emergencies may give rise to exceptions under provincial law. In this case, an emergency is defined as a situation in which a student’s health or well-being is seriously at risk.

If you are feeling distressed or are concerned about someone you know and you would like to connect to a case manager for support, please email deanofstudents [at] mcgill.ca (deanofstudents[at]mcgill[dot]ca).

If you or someone else are in immediate danger, please call 911.
