Students, faculty, researchers and staff enjoy a high level of support typical of a smaller university, creating an environment that inspires collaboration, innovation and discovery.
More than 24,500 people from 109 countries study at uSask. This includes more than 3,000 international students and over 2,900 self-declared Aboriginal students. We have more than 150,000 living alumni spread across the world.uSask’s main campus is located in Saskatoon. With a rising population of more than 250,000, Saskatoon offers many of the amenities of a large urban centre along with the friendliness and accessibility of a smaller city. There is plenty to do in Saskatoon every season, with live music events, festivals and cultural experiences offered year round.
uSask partners with regional colleges and educational institutions in Saskatchewan to provide opportunities for students to study and learn close to home. Approximately 3,300 uSask students study off-campus. Students can start their uSask program and in some cases, complete their degree without leaving home.
