Financial Support
Queen's offers a wide range of scholarships to students entering the first year of any first-entry undergraduate program of study.
There are many named bursaries available to students applying for undergraduate studies at Queen's. View a complete list of bursaries requiring an application.
The Work Study Program is intended to supplement the resources of students who have the greatest financial difficulty and the fewest financial options by giving them priority for certain part-time jobs (generally, on campus) while they are studying at Queen's. Visit the Student Awards webpage for more information.
