I applied to the 2 + 2 Music Theatre program. What are my options?
Currently, we can offer two options:
- By accessing their OUAC account, students may amend their application to another program at Queen’s. We are sharing options that we think will be attractive to students with an interest in music and drama. We have outlined the program information for these options below. For students who have applied to the 2 + 2 Music Theatre program, the deadline to amend their Queen’s application is March 1, 2025.
- Students may cancel their application to the program, and we will refund a portion of the application fee and the document assessment fee (if applicable).
