Arts and Science Transition Program

The Transition Program provides a supportive and close-knit learning environment that helps students make the jump from high school to university.
This popular initiative has been designed specifically for students whose high school grades fall below the College of Arts & Science’s admission requirements. With small classes – a maximum of 30 students – innovative instructors and numerous other support and advising services, the Transition Program equips its students with the tools they need to be successful in the College of Arts & Science.

Students in the Transition Program can take 18 credit units (three full-year or six half-year classes) through the College of Arts & Science at the Saskatoon Public School Division Royal West Campus in Saskatoon. Here, there are also opportunities to complete Grade 12 or upgrade high school marks. After successfully completing 18 credit units, students can remain in the College of Arts & Science and begin studies on the U of S main campus, or they can apply to the college of their choice as a Transfer Student.
