March 2012
--
Can you believe it's already March?
Our athletics teams have been enjoying an amazing season! Next weekend, our #1-ranked women's basketball team host the Canada West Final Four at the University of Regina!
In the coming weeks, we'll be visiting a number of schools across Saskatchewan and Manitoba, meeting students just like you. Why not snoop through our calendar?
In this issue, we'll talk about the benefits of studying through a Federated College, options for studying off-campus (including online classes), and the perks of applying before our March 15 Priority Deadline!
Finally, you're among the first to hear about our brand-new UR Gap Year Program, which can allow students to take a year off to travel or gain life experience before coming to university. Find out more about it at uregina.ca/futurestudents.
Realize. Your future is here.

  Why choose a federated college? | The University of Regina is all about providing choice. For many programs (especially arts, fine arts and science), you may register directly through the U of R, or one of our three federated colleges: Campion College, First Nations University, or Luther College.
Luther, FNUniv and Campion offers the same academic rigour as the U of R, and students may access all U of R services, plus those of their federated college! Students benefit from smaller classes, personal academic advising, and additional scholarships!
Graduates earn a University of Regina degree, plus a citation from their college. There are no additional costs to studying through a federated college, so the benefits are yours to enjoy!
Learn more about our federated colleges by visiting the "About the U of R" section of our Future Students site. |

| As a busy student, you need flexibility! Not everyone wants the 9AM to 3PM classroom life, and not everyone can make it to Regina to study. Our flexible solutions help make class accessible to you!
Nights, Online, Weekends | One of the best parts about being a U of R student is choosing when you want to study! Many popular courses are offered on a flexible schedule. Want to take your class in the evening, or on Saturdays? Perhaps you want to study from the comfort of your laptop. Our Distance & Online Learning Division has flexible solutions to help you get the classes you need on your terms. Get Closer to Home | Social Work in Swift Current? Film in Fort Qu'Appelle? Through our regional college partnerships, many courses you'll need for your program could be available at a college campus near you! Dozens of different classes are available across the province. Stay close to home while you work towards your University of Regina degree. Check out our Regional Colleges page to find out more! |

 The big deadline is coming up!
| March 15, 2012 is our Priority Deadline for fall admission! It also marks your deadline date to apply for scholarships and awards and to get your application into Residence Services.
To apply for admission, visit uregina.ca/futurestudents and click on the "Apply Now" link. If you're still not sure what program you'd like to be considered for, check out the 120+ programs that we offer.
Then head over to uregina.ca/awards to apply for entrance scholarships and awards. Millions of dollars in awards are available each year, and it's a great way to help fund your education.
Finally, get a head-start on securing a place to live by submitting your residence application at uregina.ca/residences. Our residence options vary from full apartments to traditional dorm style rooms and much more! |
Until next month, stay well and study hard! If around Regina, come cheer on the Cougars, take in a theatre production, or simply take a tour of campus. They're great ways to stay connected with your university!  |
