We are currently accepting applications for Fall 2023! The application deadline is March 1, 2023. 

Thank you for your interest in our graduate programs!
 
The School of Kinesiology and Health Studies (SKHS) admits applicants on a one-to-one basis with faculty supervisors. To be admitted into our program, you must be accepted by a faculty member who agrees to be your supervisor. As such, you are required to identify a potential supervisor prior to applying.
 
Step 1: Make initial contact with a potential supervisor BEFORE you submit your application. 
  • Make initial contact with a faculty member/potential graduate supervisor  in your area of interest
  • Determine whether that faculty member is accepting students for the upcoming year
  • Describe what you would like to study at the graduate level to make sure this supervisor will be a “good fit”
  • Faculty members make one-to-one decisions on which students to admit and supervise
Step 2: Start your online application.
The School of Graduate Studies and Postdoctoral Affairs (SGSPA) administers the application for our program.

  3. Statement of Interest OR Research Proposal: describe your research interests or present your research proposals. Maximum 2 pages, double-spaced.

These documents must be submitted to SKHS Graduate Administrator, Clara Langley, at skhs.grad@queensu.ca. Please attach the files in MS Word or PDF format.
