We will NOT be preloading any core courses for you (you must register yourself in all required courses!; we will preload courses that require departmental approval – e.g. mini-streams).

You are responsible for making sure you are on track to complete degree requirements by the end of fourth year –know your degree plan!

Start using your degree audit form (if you haven’t already) to track progress through your degree.

Pay any outstanding fees to Queen’s before July, so that you are not prevented from registering for courses. If your ‘record is on hold’, you risk not getting into the courses that you need!
