Statistics is considered a research specialization within the Mathematics program. If you wish to specialize in Statistics, apply for Mathematics and within your required Research Statement document indicate your interest in Statistics.

The application system will open for the 2020-2021 academic year in late September 2019, usually during the 3rd week of the month.  When applying you will choose "Graduate (B) Fall Term start"

No, the Department does not accept applications for January or May starts, only September.

Due to the large number of inquiries we receive we ask that you go to https://grad.usask.ca/admissions/admission-requirements.php and review the admission requirements. We will not review your degrees, transcripts, or any application documents prior to your application being complete within the official system or respond to emails requesting these services.

Applicants with no Mathematics/Statistics degree's will be considered after close review of all of their post-secondary transcripts by the Graduate Committee. The Graduate Committee must be confident that your previous studies in Mathematics/Statistics have prepared you for graduate-level course work and research. Only applicants that have paid the application fee and have uploaded their documents into the application will be reviewed.

Funding is competitive and has higher requirements then the application minimum requirements. All applications that are complete by the application deadline and qualify for funding awards will be considered for all awards available.

If your test falls after January 15 (the application deadline) you can still apply with your old results but must email mathgrad@math.usask.ca details of your test date prior to the deadline so we can update your file accordingly. We prefer, if possible, that you forward an official confirmation that you have it scheduled. You will not be considered for scholarships or awards unless you have communicated with us that your test has been scheduled.

After the Department has considered your application (which usually occurs over the January to March), a recommendation for admission may be given to the College. The review process can take until the end of March before decisions are finalized. You will be notified by the Department of the final decision.  If a recommendation for admission is given your application will be sent to the College for review.  You will receive a letter from the College if accepted once they have reviewed your file.

We usually recommend acceptances by the end of March. Only complete applications will be considered

Applications that do not meet our minimum requirements will be notified at the time of pre-screening. All other applications will find out in April if they were declined or are on a short list.

If you have already applied to our graduate program and are inquiring about the status of your application, please note that due to the large number of applications we receive each year, we cannot routinely acknowledge when we receive each piece of information or provide updates on the application progress. We contact all applicants who have paid the application fee and provided all required documents with a final decision email. Contact can sometimes take an extended period of time due to the large number of applications we receive. Please be patient and wait for further contact from mathgrad@math.usask.ca.
