Distance Education

Queen's distance courses offer the flexibility of self-directed learning with all the support of a traditional learning experience.

Each year, more than 4000 full-time, part-time and visiting students from Ontario, across Canada and around the world take Queen's courses through CDS.

  • As a full-time Queen’s student you can avoid scheduling conflicts by taking online courses in the academic year or you can accelerate your degree by taking courses in spring-summer
  • As a visiting student from another university you can catch-up or get a head start on the next academic year
  • As an interest or part-time student you can work toward a Queen’s BA degree from your home
