As a Queen’s student you do not need to apply in the traditional sense to study at the BISC. All you need to do is make sure you meet basic eligibility requirements, and request to change campus. Eligible students who request to change campus will not be given an offer, but will be contacted to confirm that the request has been processed, and your campus will be changed.
