The University of Saskatchewan recently announced that it will raise tuition fees by an average of 3.8% for the 2025-26 academic year. The greatest increases will occur in graduate programs such as the Health Professions Education graduate certificate and Master of Education programs (25% each) and the Master of Nursing – Professional Practice (15%). The University of Saskatchewan Students’ Union (USSU) expressed concern about the tuition hike, noting that students are already under financial pressure. USSU President Krunal Chavda stated that he hopes the university will work with the Government of Saskatchewan to ensure postsecondary tuition remains affordable for all.
