laudable Posted January 22, 2016 Report Share Posted January 22, 2016 Did anyone else notice this requirement for Queens PT? I am working on getting these sent in right now via SAM: In addition, if you apply to Queen’s University, youare required to upload to ORPAS: detailed coursedescriptions, from the university calendar, foreach course you propose will fulfill an academicprerequisite. Course descriptions from the universitycalendar must clearly demonstrate all requiredcontent. If a course description does not reflect thefull content of the course and prerequisite criteria,you must provide the course outline/syllabus aswell. Please copy and paste the official coursedescriptions and a PDF copy of the course outline/syllabus, if required, and upload it to ORPAS. Includeyour full name and ORPAS identification number onthe paperwork. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scrait Posted January 23, 2016 Report Share Posted January 23, 2016 Every university required this in the prerequisite section from what I remember. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laudable Posted January 23, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2016 They required a link to the course outline but queens requires you to send the course description /outline in pdf format to ORPAS. It is in the instruction booklet. If you feel you have everything you need, you can ignore it. I was just bringing your attention to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do we know if the link we sent initially on the application is enough? And this applies to Toronto PT as well I'm pretty sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KBPT2016 Posted January 25, 2016 Report Share Posted January 25, 2016 That's kinda where I'm confused though. How do we know if the link we sent initially on the application is enough? And this applies to Toronto PT as well I'm pretty sure. I was worried about this too. I have uploaded all of the outlines (had to dig for a lot of them online) for my courses through SAM just in case, because the university calendar doesn't have very detailed descriptions of my courses at all. Most of the descriptions are two sentences long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of the descriptions are two sentences long. i uploaded it online as well. I think anyone who applied to Queens should send it as a precautionary measure. If they have too many applications, they can start weeding out those that did not follow all the instructions to make their jobs easier My school calendar did not even have course descriptions. I just uploaded the syllabus which I had to find online as well. Some were near impossible to find. Good luck to us all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And this applies to Toronto PT as well I'm pretty sure. Go back and read the application instructions for Queens. They ask for this in addition to the link. For Toronto, they only ask for it if you feel your link does not provide enough information Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KevinCon Posted February 2, 2016 Report Share Posted February 2, 2016 Anybody else have trouble finding the syllabi for your prerequisites from previous years? My school seems to only have this years course outlines online in pdf. Can't find any trace of previous years. Wondering if anyone else had this problem and what they did about it. Thanks!

PeaTea Posted February 2, 2016 Report Share Posted February 2, 2016 I would send an email to ptinfo@queensu.ca w. the course information you have provided them w. on your application. I was planning on submitting additional info. regarding my pre-requisites b/c I didn't think they were detailed enough but the school said they were fine. So I would suggest you email them first, if they want you to send more detailed course outlines, you can do so through SAM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
