The Student Services fee is overseen by the Senate Committee on the Coordination of Student Services, a committee composed equally of students and University staff. Through the Office of the Dean of Students, these services are available on the Downtown and Macdonald campuses to help students achieve greater academic, physical, and social well-being.

The fee, complemented by revenue from the Quebec government, the University, and the generosity of donors, supports Athletics (including campus recreation and intercollegiate sports), Student Health (including Dental), Mental Health, Counselling and Tutorial, Chaplaincy, Career and Placement, Financial Aid and International Student Services, the Office for Students with Disabilities, First Year Students (including the Francophone Assistant), Off-Campus Housing, and the First Peoples' House. The Office of the Dean of Students also administers the academic integrity process as described in the Handbook of Student Rights and Responsibilities (see www.mcgill.ca/integrity/students).

The rates in 2005-2006 are $192 full-time (9cr and over); $115 part-time (0.1 cr - 8.99 cr); $63 additional session/non-thesis extension.
