Undergraduate Application Fee
New applicants for admission or transfer to direct entry colleges and programs are required to submit a non-refundable $90.00 application fee. Students who have previously registered at the University of Saskatchewan will not be required to pay the application fee for subsequent applications.
The fee should be in a form of a cheque or money order, in Canadian or U.S. funds, made payable to the University of Saskatchewan. The University also accepts payment by VISA or MasterCard.
Documents Required
An official transcript of the applicant's final high school (or equivalent) record must be forwarded by the appropriate Provincial Department of Education or other office maintaining such official records directly to
Admissions, Student and Enrolment Services. Applicants who have ever attended any other post-secondary institution(s), whether or not they have completed a full program of study there, must arrange for two final and complete sets of official transcripts of their academic record showing courses taken and grades obtained to be forwarded by the appropriate institution directly to
Admissions, Student and Enrolment Services. Documents become a permanent part of the applicant's file and will not be subsequently released. Photocopies of transcripts are not acceptable.
Transcripts will not be accepted directly from students.
If documents are in a language other than English, the applicant must submit an official notarized, word for word, English translation together with original documents. The applicant must also arrange for the submission of calendars and/or course outlines covering the completed courses.
Falsifying documents or withholding information requested on an application form are considered serious offenses by the University.
Applications from Students who have been Required to Discontinue their Studies
Students who have been
Required to Discontinue by the faculty of a college may not register in that college until a full academic year has elapsed. Students who have been
Required to Discontinue may, however, apply to another college or may be eligible to register as students in Open Studies, though probationary and/or other conditions may apply (See the Open Studies admission section
Returning University of Saskatchewan Students). Students who wish to enrol in Open Studies must contact Open Studies Advising to determine their eligibility. Students wishing to transfer to another college must make formal application through
Admissions, Student and Enrolment Services and must meet the required transfer average.
Acceptance of academic credit earned during a period in which a student has been Required to Discontinue is at the discretion of the receiving college.
