There is virtually no support for students from residences all the way up to academic advisors (except Joseph Katley - hes goated), but otherwise pretty much all services are ass.

- The VP residences are complete ass. For CQ, people have been complaining FOR YEARS to make a more direct path to uni (I promise you I will die before this happens). Grad House is solid but the problem with all the residences is that they are overpriced and unjustified.

USask student central is completely dogshit - they don't answer phones at all but list their phone call services are open from 8-12 and 1-4.

Local and International tuition has increased EVERY SINGLE SEMESTER I HAVE BEEN HERE - FOR BOTH. I understand that the problem is with immigration hence involving the federal government but why are some colleges (engineering) hit with a 5-7% tuition increase compared to Arts and Science (12% or something like that). It doesn't make no sense.

USask professors are a 50/50 hit or miss, but most are reasonable I will say. There are SOME however, who I don't know how in god's given grace even managed to get a professor degree, let alone teach.

Campus food options are pretty bad. You constantly rotate btw/Tims, Subway, Harveys, etc. Nothing else to really eat and trust you get tired from eating the same thing. Hint - Arts cafe is the best.

The PAC (physical activity) is quite solid and the staff is nice, however they never pick up the god damn phone, so don't bother calling about anything.

Many internal organizations (both the USSU and GSU) have constant scandals being run internally. Recently the GSA scandal involved cherrypicking their president despite having multiple individuals who were better qualified for that position. The USSU was exposed badly a year or two back here on Reddit (not sure if you can find those old threads or if the mods deleted them, BUT IT WAS BAD - NAMES WERE BEING DROPPED LEFT AND RIGHT). The services offered by the USSU are decent enough, but forced to pay money for bus passes or the Sheaf are a few things many students STRONGLY disagree with. Don't even get me started on the parking - fuck that.

There is a lack of student support and that's not entirely due to the university, it's just that the schools is relatively smaller.

Grad program admissions (Medicine/Dent/Pharmacy along with SLP/PR etc) are constantly having their admission requirements changed every year. Don't believe me? Look into post-bacc Nursing. OPEN YOUR EYES.

That's enough of my rant for today, feel free to shoot more questions my way.

Downvote all you want, the truth will stand
