About
One of the best ways to get to know your future university is to come see it for yourself! Lasting approximately 90 minutes (1.5 hours), tours are conducted by current students who can tell you what life as a student here is like. We'll show you around many of the places and spaces prospective students want to see most, including:
- buildings where you could have classes,
- popular student hang-outs and study areas,
- athletic facilities, and
- student services that you can access before and after you begin your studies.
USask is recognized as one of the most beautiful universities in Canada, and boasts state-of-the-art facilities that help us to be what the world needs. We can't wait to show you around!
USask is a mask-friendly environment and your tour guide may wear a mask at their discretion.
Residence is not included in regular campus tours. Watch for special events like Open House where tours of Residence may be offered, and be sure to check out information about our Residences online.
