Faculty and Staff demographic data used are results of the ICOUNT Queen's Equity Census. The required return rate for the ICOUNT Census is above 80 per cent. The results, collected by the Equity Services division of the Human Rights and Equity Office, are based on population. The mandate for Equity Services is to work with officers of the university, the Senate Education Equity Committee, and the Council on Employment Equity to ensure that equity is achieved throughout the University in accordance with the Report on Principles and Priorities adopted by the Queen's Senate in 1996.

Student Applicant Equity Census

Student demographic data used are results pooled across multiple surveys such as the Student Applicant Census and Ontario Universities Application Centre (OUAC), other than the data provided for women, which is derived from PeopleSoft. The return rate for the pooled surveys is 42.4 percent for undergraduate students; that means the percentages reported are on only those students that responded to the surveys and may not be fully reflective of the student population. Since 1999, the Applicant Equity Census has been administered to all students applying to undergraduate and graduate programs at Queen's University. The Census asks applicants to voluntarily indicate whether they identify as an Indigenous person, a person with a disability, and/or a racialized person. It also seeks to determine the overall economic makeup of applicants by asking for information on family gross income, the level of parental education and the size of the applicant's home town.
