The Faculty of Arts and Science invites applications for a limited number of upper-year spaces. To be considered for part-time admission, upper-year applicants must have a minimum GPA of 2.60 (or B-).  Note: Some departments may require a higher average.

Definition of Upper-Year Candidates

• students who have completed a minimum of 24.0 units (or the equivalent) at another accredited university (or college with a university transfer program).  24.0 Queen's units are typically four full-year courses (each course taken over two terms) or eight one-term only courses, or a combination thereof.  Upper year candidates have generally attended university for a minimum of two terms, taking academic courses as opposed to applied or professional courses;
• Ontario community college students who are in a three-year diploma program and will be graduating;
• Graduates from three-year Ontario community college diploma programs;
• CEGEP students who are in the final year of three-year professional/career programs who will be receiving their DEC;
• graduates of three-year CEGEP professional/career programs who have their DEC. 

• Transfer units are assessed by individual departments and are based on grades achieved as well as equivalency to Queen's courses. Students are informed of their transfer units after the offer of admission has been sent. Transfer units are not granted for courses with a final grade lower than 1.70 (or C-)
• Graduates from Ontario community college three-year diploma programs or from CEGEP programs may receive a maximum of 30.0 transfer units.
• The Faculty of Arts and Science requires students to complete the majority of their academic work at Queen's University in order to receive a degree.  For a four-year Honours program, this is the minimum of 66.0 units with appropriate courses in the major. For a three-year General program, this is a minimum of 48.0 units with appropriate courses in the minor.
