Edwards School of Business
Deadline approaching for Edwards School of Business COMM 101 dual credit course for Grade 12 students this fall. Students going into Grade 12 next fall can get a head start on their degree by taking COMM 101, an online business course offered by Edwards School of Business. This is an especially great option for students in high schools that are not able to offer any business education courses.
With COMM 101, students can:
• find out whether commerce is right for them
• discover what major they’re interested in
• meet like-minded students from across the province
• possibly earn a scholarship for future degree
• earn high school credit
Students are encouraged to apply on Edwards' COMM 101 Online page by June 30 to start in September 2025.
College of Nursing
Students interested in applying to Nursing in the future can apply to the Nursing Preparation program in the College of Arts and Science until August 15. However, because class registration opens in June, please encourage students who have not yet applied to do so as soon as possible to ensure they can register for classes on time. Many of the pre-professional courses required to be eligible to apply to the Nursing program (Year 2) fill quickly. Students are encouraged to be ready to register in June.
U-Start activities are designed to kick-start your student life at the University of Saskatchewan (USask)! As a newly admitted undergraduate student, you have some important milestones coming up. U-Start can help you:
