Offers of Admission
All offers of admission made to Ontario high school students by Queen's University, prior to receiving final grades and completing the Ontario Secondary School Diploma (OSSD), are conditional. Decisions can be based on final Grade 11 results (with registration in appropriate Grade 12 courses), final first semester Grade 12 results and/or Grade 12 interim results.
Basic Requirements for Admission
The OSSD and six 4U/M courses, including English 4U, are required. Please review the specific program requirements for more details, as some programs require additional courses at the U-level. Average calculation is based on prerequisite subjects, plus the next best 4U/M courses, for a total of 6 courses.
Note: The Engineering admission average is calculated using only the 5 prerequisite courses.
A high school transcript is just 1 piece of information we use when making an admission decision. Each applicant to Queen's has a unique To Do List, detailing exactly what is needed to complete their application. Students can see their To Do List (and the due dates) on their SOLUS Student Centre. We will send students SOLUS access information after they apply.
Failed and Repeated Courses
Ontario universities support full disclosure of all marks achieved in all attempts at a high school course. At Queen's, all undergraduate programs will use the most recent grade achieved when calculating the admission average.
Timing and Process for Admission Decisions
Admission decisions will be made once all required documentation is submitted to Undergraduate Admission and Recruitment. The deadline for Ontario high school students to submit documentation to Queen's (not including the Supplementary Application) is April 30.
Admission decisions will be made on an ongoing basis from early December to mid-May. Ontario high school students are required to respond to offers of admission by June 2.
Alternative Offers
Queen's University does not make alternative offers of admission. Students are considered only for the program(s) to which they apply (or amend) through the Ontario º£½ÇÊÓƵ' Application Centre. Students should ensure all program choices are listed on their application.
