General Requirements for all Programs

Bachillerato en Humanidades/Ciencias (School Leaving Certificate in Humanities or Sciences) including the final transcript are required for admission to all programs. If you have completed more than 18 credit units of transferable credit units from an accredited post-secondary institution, your admission will be based on your post-secondary studies.

Early Admission

You may apply for admission in the year you will graduate if you submit your transcript from the previous year and a list of the courses you are currently completing. Conditional admission may be granted in these circumstances.

Transfer Credit

The University of Saskatchewan considers courses from accredited institutions around the world for transfer credit. Generally, credit is awarded on a course-by-course basis for courses equivalent to those taught at the University of Saskatchewan. When you apply for admission we will review your education history for admission and transfer credit. Your year of study and program requirements are determined by each college.

  • First-language literature/composition
  • Mathematics
Plus a combination of:
  • Maximum 2 humanities or social science subjects
  • Maximum 2 natural science subjects
