McMaster scholarship payments and refunds are paid via e-transfer.
Scholarship payment
If you have a scholarship payment owing to you, we will coordinate the refund for you. You will receive an e-transfer to your McMaster email address within one to two weeks after we have processed the payment.
Please note: e-transfers for your graduate or department scholarships will be withheld if you have a past due balance on your Student Account. Questions about unpaid balances should be directed to studbill@mcmaster.ca
Scholarships paid through e-transfer include:
- graduate scholarships
- entrance scholarships
- department scholarships
- external scholarships
- tuition scholarships
- Tri-Agency awards (CIHR, NSERC, SSHRC)
- Provincial awards (Ontario Graduate Scholarship (OGS) and The Queen Elizabeth II Graduate Scholarship in Science and Technology (QEII-GSST))
Student account credit
If you have a credit (negative balance) showing on your account, please go to the Registrar’s website and follow the step-by-step directions for initiating a refund.
We will verify the refund and process the refund through e-transfer. Allow 4-6 weeks for processing and delivery.
