Award Holders' Information

Initiate Payment of Your Award

Payment of your fellowship through direct deposit

At Queen’s University, all awards (scholarships, fellowships, prizes, QGA, etc.) administered by or through the School of Graduate Studies, are paid through direct deposit to the award holder’s bank account of record.

The bank account of record must be held at a valid Canadian bank. The bank account of record will receive award payments for any award you receive, for the duration of your enrolment as a graduate student. This direct deposit method is only for those internal and external awards, fellowships, scholarships, Queen’s Graduate Award (QGA), etc. administered by the School of Graduate Studies.

There is a separate process through your department to make arrangements for Teaching Assistantships (TAs) and Research Assistantships (RAs) to be deposited into your bank account.

International Tuition Awards (ITA) are not deposited to your bank account; they are paid directly to your fees account, as a portion of your tuition assessment.

Using SOLUS to set up, change or verify your bank account of record

To set up, change or verify your bank account of record, log onto SOLUS through “My.QueensU/SOLUS” found on the main page to view your account. The “DATE POSTED” is the date that the direct deposit is INITIATED. Please note that you must add 4 to 5 business days after the “DATE POSTED” date, or to the date that you have completed registration, set up your bank account of record, and/or met any other eligibility requirements, for these funds to appear in your bank account of record.
