Does Queens have a student portal like western? Or are they sending emails?

They have both, but I think you'll only have login info for the portal if you previously applied and got in to Queen's (ie. for undergrad). I may be wrong though!

How do waitlists work at one school if you have an offer from another school?

One offer expires in May 28 but waitlist keeps moving until August 31....so are they like giving you an ultimatum to choose?  Or can you accept what you have been offered but still be in consideration at the wait list at that other program?
