How do I register and select courses?
Registration consists of three steps:
- Selection of courses;
- Payment of Tuition and the Student Assistance Levy (SAL) and,
- Picking up and/or validating your Student Card.
You have not completed the registration process until you have completed all steps.
Please be aware that, if you have an outstanding debt, you will NOT be able to participate in the course selection period. All outstanding debts must be paid before you can register. Log on to SOLUS to view your account and see if you have any outstanding debts. |

Challenges meeting the Tuition and Student Assistance Levy (SAL) deadline? |
To assist students who cannot meet the September 1st and January 10th payment deadlines, but have a proven source of funding, an Alternative Payment Arrangement (APA) Program has been developed. The APA allows students, upon approval, to defer payment of their tuition without penalty, to September 30th for Fall Term fees and January 31st for Winter Term fees. An APA request must be submitted no later than August 15, 2018 for Fall Term and December 15, 2018 for Winter Term. APA requests must be sent from your @queensu.ca email address and must include your student number. You may submit beginning in July and may request both terms at the same time. |
Submit an APA request if you will be receiving the following sources of funding that prevent you from paying your tuition by the respective due dates. |
