Welcome to Queen's First-Year Off-Campus Community!
The First-Year Off-Campus Community is a community for all first-year students living off-campus during their transition to Queen’s
Each year, 5-10% of students live off-campus in their first-year, and the First-Year OCC offers inter-faculty events, supports, and upper-year leaders to help ease the first-year transition.
