Each applicant to Queen's has a personalized To Do List, detailing exactly what is needed to complete their application. Students can review their To Do List (and associated due dates) on their Queen's SOLUS Student Centre. Applicants to Commerce, Health Sciences, and Nursing are required to complete a Supplementary Application. Students will receive instructions for accessing SOLUS and their Supplementary Application after they apply. Alternative Offers Queen's does not make alternate offers of admission. Applicants will be considered only for the program(s) to which they have applied (or amended) via the Ontario Universities' Application Centre (OUAC) by the published deadlines.

What it is	Health Sciences is a broad program combining study of how health systems work, the use of technology and data in healthcare, and social policy that shapes health outcomes. It differs from biology or medicine by focusing on the bigger picture of health delivery and policy rather than pure life sciences or direct clinical training. It suits students interested in healthcare careers beyond clinical practice, like health administration, public health, or health technology roles.	Health Sciences is a broad study of how the human body works, what causes disease, and how to treat or prevent it using science and technology. You'll learn biology, chemistry, genetics, and specialized areas like medical technology or health informatics depending on your choices. Unlike a program that leads directly to a specific profession like nursing or medicine, this one keeps your options open: you can use it as a foundation for professional health careers, research, or roles in biotechnology and public health.	This program lets you earn both a kinesiology degree and a teaching certificate in four years instead of five. You study human movement, exercise science, and nutrition alongside education theory and teaching methods, preparing you to teach high school physical education. It suits students who want to combine their interest in sport and exercise science with a career in secondary education.
