Application Information

Domestic university or college transfer applicants to the faculty linked from this programme

  • If you have previously attended another recognized college, university, or technical institute, you are considered a college/university transfer student. Post-secondary transfer admission averages are calculated using the Admissions Grade Point Average (AGPA). The AGPA is calculated by combining recognized academic post-secondary courses and attempted U of R courses. Official college/university transcripts must be sent directly from the post-secondary institution(s) to Enrolment Services at the U of R. We accept mailed and e-mailed transcripts sent directly from the issuing institution(s). We also accept electronic transcripts delivered via vendors authorized by the sending institution such as Parchment, Digitary (MyCreds), National Student Clearinghouse, and others. Finally, we accept transcripts from online verification portals that have secure log in portals such as International Baccalaureate and Cambridge Exams. We will also accept official World Education Services (WES) International Credential Advantage Package ( ICAP ) assessments. When you are completing the request, you will choose "University of Regina" and "Office of Undergraduate Admissions" as the "Recipient", which can be sent either by mail or electronically. All documents that are supplied in support of applications for admission become the property of the University of Regina and will not be forwarded to another institution. English Language Proficiency The language of instruction at the University of Regina is English. All applicants to the University of Regina must therefore demonstrate an appropriate level of proficiency in the English language. Find information on English language proficiency requirements here.

Required diploma or professional entry route

Applicants to the named post-diploma Science degree; a general high-school Science offer does not meet these additional entry conditions.

  • Completed Saskatchewan Polytechnic Medical Laboratory Technology diploma with minimum graduating average 60%.
  • Passing Pre-Calculus 30 or equivalent.
Regina October 2026 edition of 2026/27 calendar: programme-specific and transfer admission tables, printed pages 20–27
Mature category and published faculty limits

Applicants over 21 who do not meet secondary-school admission requirements

  • The public definition requires fewer than 15 to 24 university credit hours depending on the faculty. The exact faculty threshold is separate and has not been certified here. A personal statement normally explains achievements, life experience, goals and motivation.
  • The published mature-entry faculty/programme list is Arts, Education, Kinesiology and Health Studies, La Cite, Media Art and Performance, Social Work, Centre for Continuing Education, and Science through its Science Qualifying Program. Business and Engineering are not on that finite list. This does not grant direct entry to every named degree in a listed faculty; consult the faculty’s specific category and programme conditions.
