Clarification of Signature Pages
- Only supervisor(s) signatures are required. Printed names should always accompany signatures.
- No institution signatures are required on the pages at the time of application, as McMaster University’s submission on your behalf acts as the institution/institution paid signature.
Scan and upload the signed signature pages, including the routing slip, as one PDF (unprotected and not exceeding 30 MB), in the Print/Upload Signature Pages task in ResearchNet prior to submitting the application.
