Students transferring from another post-secondary institution who apply for admission to the University of Saskatchewan prior to May 1 will be automatically considered for transfer scholarships.
Students with an awards average in the following ranges will receive:
| Your best average | Scholarship value |
| 85% or greater | $2,000 |
| 80% to 84.9% | $1,500 |
| 78% to 79.9% | $1,000 |
There is also a $2,500 transfer scholarship offered to the student with the highest transfer scholarship average from select post-secondary institutions.
How is my average calculated?
Only those students with a 78% (B+) or above average will be eligible for transfer scholarships. Your average may be calculated based on either the first term or the entire year of the year immediately preceding transfer to the USask, depending on the time of application. For students eligible to receive block transfer via articulation agreements, the average used will be your total cumulative average.
When will I receive payment?
Your Transfer Scholarship will be applied directly to your USask student account for payment of tuition and fees by mid-September, provided you enrol in a minimum of 18 credit units in the Fall and Winter Terms (September to April) in the year the award is to be taken up.
You may be eligible for a transfer scholarship if:
If you are an international transfer students meeting English proficiency requirements, you could also be eligible if you have attended full-time studies (defined as two terms per year) at the USask Language Centre immediately preceding transfer to the USask.
Students must also complete a minimum of 18 credit units during the academic year (September–April) in which the scholarship is received. If a student is dual registered, a minimum of 9 of the 18 required credit units must be USask courses.
