Occupying its position as the capital of Saskatchewan, Regina offers its inhabitants diverse and changeable climate conditions, varied shopping areas, and sports installations in a small city known for its friendly, welcoming locals.

Amenities, entertainment and everything in between tends to be spread out very widely across the city, meaning those who live and study here usually rely on the use of a car for getting around. The pride and joy of Regina is their professional football team, the Regina Rams, who often fill out their 35,000-seater stadium whenever there’s an important game on.

Student Opinions About Studying in Regina

“Regina is a small town that makes you feel like it’s big. The locals like to get together to drink beer, and everyone knows each other. The rhythm of life is very slow here, but there are some who like that and some who don’t.”

“At first glance the lack of typical metropolitan entertainment in Regina can seem like a bad thing, but what I’ve seen is that people here find it a lot more normal to invite you to their house, so making friends is accelerated because of that, I think.”

“Thanks to the ring road you can live pretty much anywhere in Regina and still be able to make it across the city in around 20 minutes, with a little extra if using public transport.”

Regina Key Facts for International Students

PROS

  • Tuition fees are more affordable for international students in Saskatchewan than in other regions, in general.

  • As something unique to the province of Saskatchewan, the local government provides healthcare to international students who can demonstrate they are studying within the province.

  • This region enjoys the third-lowest unemployment statistics in Canada, and students tend to report being able to find part-time work to combine with their studies.

CONS

  • The region has a very sparse population distribution, so during your time here you can expect to drive for miles without seeing any signs of civilization. This aspect of Saskatchewan can make it difficult for students to get around who don’t have their own car.

  • In Regina there don’t exist the four seasons as most know them, but instead just two: hot summers, and long winters.

  • The entertainment options are limited to outdoor activities in Regina, which may be unwelcome news for those who have more metropolitan pastimes.
