What to watch for
Verified verbatim on Queen's requirements table: "English 4U, Calculus and Vectors 4U, and one additional 4U Mathematics course, with minimum grades of 80% in these three prerequisite courses." ONE 4U math is not enough — this is the single most common disqualifier. A Supplementary Application (one written response, one video response) is required; for Commerce it opens the first week of March and is due June 15.
