Common Requirements

Supplementary Information

Your high school transcript is just one piece of information we use when making an admission decision. Each applicant to Queen’s has a unique To-Do List, detailing exactly what we need to complete your application. You can see your To-Do List (and the due dates) on your SOLUS Student Centre. We will send your SOLUS access information after you apply.

We review and update our supplementary requirements on a regular basis to ensure applicants have a meaningful platform to share additional information not available through their grades.

English Language

English Language Proficiency (ELP) Requirements: Do you live in a country where English is not the acknowledged primary language? Find out if you are required to submit ELP scores…

QBridge is an English language pathway to Queen’s University for students who are academically competitive for admission to a Queen’s undergraduate degree program, but who do not meet the required admission standard for English language proficiency. The QBridge programs ensure that students are linguistically, academically, and culturally prepared to complete their Queen’s undergraduate degree studies.

Pathways

Indigenous Pathway

Queen’s University offers Indigenous candidates an alternate path for admission to the first year of a full-time, first-entry undergraduate degree program. Candidates seeking admission under this pathway apply through the Ontario Universities’ Application Centre (OUAC), and self-identify as having Indigenous ancestry. Using this pathway candidates must meet the general admission conditions for each program and deadlines for admission. This may also include completion of any applicable Supplementary Essays (SE) as well as audition or portfolio submission requirements.

Offers of admission will be made to Indigenous candidates whose total application shows strong evidence of academic preparedness and potential. Students who are admitted under this pathway will be encouraged to make use of the academic advising and academic support services available to all students at Queen’s. Candidates should submit a separate letter to the Indigenous Community Liaison stating that they wish to be considered under this pathway and provide evidence of Indigenous ancestry.
