As a current student studying nursing you will be able to find all the information you require from this web page. The web site has been revamped to help you navigate more easily. You can find the calendar for information about the courses you are taking, you can Pay for additional expenses through the online bank account, Find job opportunities in research and education, and Download forms for applying for grants and scholarships.

Remember that if you are looking for specific information about a course you are taking it is best to check Web CT for the most up to date and comprehensive information. We encourage you to browse through the web site by using the links on the left hand side of the page. If there is information you can’t find then contact us for help and guidance. In early September there will be a notice board on the main floor of the School of Nursing building dedicated to Pandemic Flu Planning. Please make sure you check the board regularly for updates. In addition, you will be sent email messages and will find updates on WebCT.

When should you contact your undergraduate academic advisor?

• You’re too sick to study, complete assignments on time, prepare for a test or exam.
• You have questions about what elective courses to take.
• You have questions about transfer credits from other university programs.
• You are thinking about taking a course at a different university during the summer.
• You are having trouble concentrating on your studies, worried about not doing as well as you would like, don’t know where to turn.

I want to wish you success in the upcoming year and look forward to welcoming you back to Queen’s.
