English, ENG4U Biology, SBI4U A grade 12 U-level Math or grade 11 or 12 U-level Physics are recommended to prepare for senior Kinesiology subjects in biomechanics, research methods, and statistics. It is strongly recommended that students interested in the BSc program take an additional grade 12 Math or Science like Calculus, Pre-calculus, or Chemistry. SCH4U is a prerequisite for first-year Chemistry courses.
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	Nursing is a program where you study how to care for patients, manage their treatment, and support their health across hospitals, clinics, and community settings. Unlike a general health science degree, nursing combines classroom learning in anatomy, pharmacology, and patient care with hands-on clinical placements where you work alongside qualified nurses. This program suits people who want direct patient contact, are comfortable with responsibility for others' wellbeing, and are willing to work in demanding, shift-based roles.	You study human movement, exercise science, and how the body responds to physical activity, then transition directly into specialized training in physiotherapy — hands-on treatment of injuries and movement disorders. This five-year combined program lets you earn both a bachelor's and master's degree without applying separately, and it leads to eligibility for physiotherapy licensing. It suits students drawn to science-based healthcare who want to work hands-on with patients recovering from injury or managing physical disabilities.	Kinesiology is the study of human movement, exercise, and sport from biological and physical perspectives. You'll learn anatomy, physiology, biomechanics, and exercise science to understand how bodies move and respond to physical activity. The BA offers broader flexibility in electives; the BSc includes more chemistry, physics, and advanced quantitative analysis, preparing you better for research or health science pathways. It suits people interested in exercise science, athletic performance, rehabilitation, or health promotion who want science grounded in practical movement.
