Your highest listed choice is considered first when you indicate more than 1 Brock program on your application. If you are not eligible for your first choice, your subsequent choices will be considered in your indicated order of preference. In most cases: If you apply to only 1 Brock program but do not qualify, you will be considered for an alternative or related program. If you apply but are not admitted to a co-op program, you will automatically be considered for the regular, non co-op program.

More than marks?supplementary application	Yes A high school transcript is just 1 piece of information Queen's University uses when making an admission decision. 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 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.	Community health focuses on preventing disease and improving wellbeing in groups and populations rather than treating individuals one-on-one. You'll study how social factors, environment, and policy shape health outcomes, and learn to design programs that serve communities. It suits people interested in public health, health education, or working with diverse populations on prevention and equity.	A Bachelor of Science (General) lets you study science broadly across biology, chemistry, environmental science, and related fields, choosing your own mix of courses rather than specializing deeply in one area. Unlike an honours program, it gives you flexibility to explore multiple sciences without committing to a single major or meeting the tighter requirements of a specialized stream. This suits students who are curious about science in general but aren't yet sure which direction appeals to them most.	This program combines biology, chemistry, and psychology to explore how living systems work at both the molecular and mental levels. You'll study everything from cellular and genetic processes to brain function and behaviour, with the option to gain work experience through co-op placements. It suits students interested in medicine, neuroscience, pharmaceutical research, or any field that bridges the physical and behavioural sciences.
