Facts and Statistics

The Office of Institutional Research 

provides reports and statistical data to inform the University’s business decision making and research initiatives. We produce some reports annually, others each term, and still others on an ad hoc basis. Many of the data reports we produce are submitted to official reporting offices such as Statistics Canada and Saskatchewan's Ministry of Advanced Education. As well, we submit information about our students and our school to international rankings administrators.

National Headcounts

These reports are based on Student Counts for Universities Canada - National Fall Count Data, which are student headcounts at our Fall Census Date, at the end of the fourth week of classes.

For more detailed demographic data (as of Fall Census Dates), see our Fall Supplemental Reports.

Detailed Headcounts by Faculty, Program and Major

These are "as of date" counts; actual enrolments may increase slightly as late registration information is added. Students counted are those registered in the Fall Term for one or more credits towards a University of Regina Degree, Certificate or Diploma. Graduate students maintain status while engaged in thesis work.

Tuition - Comparatives and Affordability

This Item for Information for the Board of Governors addresses the relevant factors that must be provided as part of a proposal to the Board for changes to tuition.

These elements are being provided in advance of the full budget and tuition Decision Item (in April), to allow timely consideration of the tuition policy environment before specific trade-offs need to be made in the budget process.

TLAC Criteria

Tuition and Living Costs for Full Time Students are reported to Statistics Canada annually. At the University of Regina, this report is prepared by OIR using the following criteria:

Undergraduate Tuition Fees

This refers only to the cost of tuition fees for full-time students and does not include additional fees for materials or equipment. The U of R defines these students as full-course load students. Although tuition fees can be reported on any basis, tables produced by Statistics Canada reflect an academic year of two semesters (eight months) or 30 credits in order to create a basis for comparison with other Canadian institutions.

Graduate Tuition Fees

This refers only to the cost of full-time graduate tuition. Additional fees such as materials and equipment are not included. When reporting Tuition & Living Accommodation Costs to Statistics Canada, the University of Regina defines this as 18 credit hours per two semesters.
