Wow.. nice to see this thread is up. Although Queen's is yet to release deadlines, it never hurts to start early so as to have sufficient time for brainstorming on essays.

Good luck folks! Look forward to your introductions in this thread.

Hi all..Any links to templates that can be used for the cover letter?

styn246 · Answer

Hi, specifically for Queen’s, you are allowed up to two pages (Canada legal size, not A4, keep this setting in mind before typing) and it is not that different from any other cover letter that you would do (your application advisor will provide you with details on what topics to cover and who to address the letter to). Be Creative, cover letters (like essays) can tell a story too! Good luck!

PavanJain · Answer

Hi all. I am planning to apply ti the Jan 2020 intake. Just wanted to understand from pr perspective. Since it is a one year course and hence one year stay back, will it have any impact on the pr process. Is one year enough after the mba to get the pr process done? Or 3 year stay back option like in rotman/ mcgill is a safer option when it comes to getting the pr process done? If someone can throw some light on when to take ielts, apply for pr once receipt of admit, it will be of grt help.

Hi everyone,
We have an admitted students group on Whatsapp. Kindly DM me your contact details so that I may add you to the group.

Secondly, if any of the forum admins could generate a new 'Decision tracker' for the class of 2021 (the Jan 2020 intake) that would be great. The current one is for the previous year.

Hi  TA89 , Thanks for noticing this issue. Yes, we are working on changing the application year so that trackers for the new season appears in that section. You will soon see the decision tracker for Jan 2020 intake.
