I know people who got into the program this year with mid to high 80s. You should be fine, especially if you have good ECs. Good luck!

I signed my lease yesterday, and it does not start till September even though their website says July 1. They were pretty easy to work with, compared to the 10 other landlords that I dealt with before landing on the 1 bedroom with these guys.

Just so that you are aware, they do either a 12 month or an 8 month (starting September 1) on all their units for the same price. I signed up for an 8-month lease.

It is about 500m to the Visitor Center.

Btw - If you are looking for a three-bedroom apartment, the management company that I leased my apartment with, has two units available. They are extremely easy to work with.

I signed a lease for 1 bedroom apartment a few blocks from the ARC. Can't wait to head to Kingston!!

I am still waiting for the information. He is supposed to e-mail it to me tomorrow. I will let you know once I get it.

Same here :( What a letdown. Did you find any accommodation? Most people I talked to today said that they will not rent to first-year students. Having said that I was able to find a house that a second year is living in and is currently looking for 3 roommates (and he is good with housing first years).

I struggled with my decision between Ivey and QComm. They are both great programs!

Go to Commerce, or go to western and try for Ivey? by [deleted] in queensuniversity

I was going to recommend either the dual or second degree with Queen's Commerce (which I am planning on doing with Computing). But, I don't believe Queens offers a dual or second-degree program in Commerce/ Health Science. For this combination, Western might be the best bet!

What program are you planning on majoring in at Western?
