"Our belief is that an offer of admission to Queen’s recognizes academic achievement; the goal of our financial aid programs is to make it possible for more admitted students to attend. Our hope is this initiative will empower those who may not have otherwise considered Queen’s, due to personal, geographic, or socio-economic circumstances, to become part of our university community."
