Operations Forecast (Budget Request)

The formal process for each annual Budget at the University of Regina begins in May with a Budget Request and Operations Forecast which is submitted to the Saskatchewan Ministry of Advanced Education. The Forecast is a statement of the University's forecasted budgetary requirements for the upcoming fiscal year. It provides context for the University's expenditure estimates, and describes the University's funding needs and opportunities for development.

Starting with the 2020-21 Forecast (submitted May 2019), the Ministry requested that the Forecast be referenced as the 'Budget Request'. Since the 2018-19 Forecast (submitted in May 2017), Forecasts have been submitted in May of each year. The 2014-15 through 2017-18 Forecasts were submitted in July of each year. The 2013-14 and previous years' Forecasts were submitted in November of each year.
