Successfully graduating with a Queen's degree is a great investment with lifelong rewards. We understand that for many students and their families the cost of a university education is a serious consideration.
Ensuring that all students who are offered admission to Queen's can attend and complete their degree at Queen's is a fundamental priority for Queen's University.
Let us help you manage your investment by advising you about your options for financial assistance.
Financial assistance can be defined into two broad categories:
- Merit-based funding (i.e. scholarships) rewards you for outstanding achievement in academics and extra-curricular activities;
- Need-based funding (i.e. loans and grants, non repayable bursaries or work programs) is based on your demonstrated financial need. When academic achievement is combined with demonstrated financial need it is generally called an award.
Approximately 50% of our entering students receive a Queen's Admission Scholarship, Bursary or Award. You may also be surprised to know that 50% of Queen's undergraduate students qualify for student financial assistance in the form of scholarships, bursaries, loans and grants.
In addition to your own savings, and your family's contribution, you may qualify for support from government student assistance programs or financial institutions through a student line of credit. There are also many external awards offered by outside agencies and organizations that might be need-based or merit-based or both!
