ANNUAL REVIEW 2020-2021

Despite the challenges presented by the ongoing pandemic, the Faculty of Arts and Science enjoyed a historic year. Celebrate a year of success with the 2020-2021 Annual Review.



More information, as well as last years edition, can be found on our website.
IMPORTANT NOTE ON EXAMS

If you are taking any courses on campus, you will be writing all final proctored exams, including remote and online course exams, in Kingston.This means you will write proctored exams in only one format: in person in an exam hall (if you have at least one on-campus course), or online (if you are taking no on-campus courses). Only students doing all courses online (-700 section) or remotely are eligible to write their exams remotely. You should not make any end-of-term travel plans until you have reviewed the exam schedule which is released in mid-October.

If you have any questions regarding your exams, contact exams@queensu.ca.
UPDATE TO ACADEMIC CONSIDERATION OFFICE HOURS

Starting Friday, October 1, Academic Consideration Office Hours will be hosted via Zoom on Tuesdays (2 – 3:30pm) and Thursdays (10:30 am - noon). Join us on Zoom. You do not need to use your video to attend the Zoom call. Office hours will take place privately with each student. When you arrive, you will be put in the waiting room until the student ahead of you is finished.
BARTLETT STUDENT INITIATIVES FUND

Projects should provide educational opportunities such as participation in exchanges, competitions, internships, symposia, conferences, and seminars.
 
Applicants must be registered undergraduate students in the Faculty of Arts and Science and the project must be non-profit in nature.
