Welcome to the AMS!

The Alma Mater Society (AMS) at Queen’s University is your student government, founded in 1858 and representing over 21,000 undergraduates. We run student-staffed services, fund clubs and grants, create jobs, and—most importantly—advocate for you at Queen’s and with governments at every level. Every dollar goes back into students, strengthening the community and ensuring your voice shapes real change on campus and beyond.

Membership

The Alma Mater Society offers undergraduate students access to an abundance of resources and support. Students are provided with competitive Health and Dental Insurance, Kingston’s City Bus passes at the lowest cost offered, and many more supports and services.

We run 18 services which have been established to meet the wants and needs of Queen’s students. Every service is run top to bottom, from management to staff, completely by Queen’s undergraduates. From printing and copying, to coffee, to digital media, the AMS has opportunities available in a wide range of fields.

Clubs

Comprised of 300+ unique clubs and 16000+ students getting involved each year, the clubs community is an integral part of the Queen’s experience. Clubs not only enhance student life, but provide opportunities to make meaningful contributions to the Queen’s and Kingston community. No matter what you’re interested or passionate about, there’s something for everyone to get involved!
