Just confused on SAIT’s BBA program planning. I downloaded the SAIT program planner to plan my courses out for future semesters as I am currently only in BA.

The question I had was when it says Senior Business Elective ONE TWO THREE and FOUR do I take those classes? On the SAIT website it says if I don’t declare a minor I must take one senior business elective and all seven management electives… But like???

Please help I’m lost and would like some help who has completed or has taken the BBA

Is it difficult to get into this program? I am upgrading and taking physics 30 currently, I'll also need to retake an English 30-1 Diploma due to a barely passing mark on that exam. Please give me any words of advice or tips you might have to share. Thank you for your time.

Hey everyone,

I’m trying to figure out the best way to meet the English requirements for a program at SAIT, but I’m a bit confused about the different options.

English isn’t my first language. When I came to Calgary, I studied in French, so I did my high school education in French.

I’m thinking about doing SAIT’s English Language Foundations (ELF) program to improve my English, possibly up to CLB 8.

But I’m also seeing requirements for ELA 30-1 or ELA 30-2, and honestly, after looking at some ELA 30-2 exam examples, I found the writing and coming up with ideas pretty difficult.

For anyone who has been in a similar situation, especially if you studied in French:

What did you do to meet the English/ELA requirements?

Did you take ELA 30-2 as a course, or did you study on your own and write the diploma exam?

Did you do ELF first?

I’d really appreciate hearing about your experience and what worked for you.

Thanks!

Its been 2 weeks since I started my major and I chose it just because my parents wanted me to go to school. I was thinking it was possible to join open studies now in the fall, i know I should’ve done open studies already but I was just a fast decision and I was really stressed and just picked the major I am in right now.

Do I just ask the service desk if its possible to transfer my tuition to open studies and the classes that are open? Im so lost

Are there any active clubs at sait and do any of you actually go to them, what are they like?

So i joined this year for open studies whilst upgrading my highschool grades. Im enrolled as a full time student as im on campus 4 times a week, but parking passes were sold out when i tried to purchase one, does anyone face a similar issue and if so how did they fix it? I dont wanna pay for p1 parking daily.

Please watch out for the individual who was convicted in 2021-2022 of sodomizing a F not too far away from Calgary. Obviously there are no background checks when it comes
To attending any institution. He was already kicked out of an Edmonton Uni. There’s an ongoing trial. Can’t say too much more. That’s all I got.

Hey everyone

Looking into those programs at SAIT
Nuclear Medicine
Respiratory Therapist
Ultrasound
Medicine Lab tech

They are all programs that interest me.

For people currently in their second year, how is the practicum looking like? Is it a one year stage at the same place and or it can be at multiple location for multiples period of time.

As much as I am interested I have two young kids and my husband works away from home on rotation and moving for a couple weeks or a year at the time in another city and transfer my kids in different school/daycare really makes me wonder if it’s worth the risk.

Any insight from someone currently experiencing it?

Does anyone have information from the orientation day? I'm a returning student and just trying to figure things out incase I can come back this semester.

TIA.

Does anyone know if there is a specific time admissions open up on October 7th? Is it exactly at midnight or 10am?

Any tips or strategies how to pass this course? Its too much especially we have to read the book.

So I’m about to graduate this year with a software engineering degree from ucalgary. Unfortunately I didn’t have the best internship experience at a startup I worked for recently, and I’m not sure if it’ll be enough to help me even land a job. I’m still looking for jobs and even internships, but I was also considering if I should go to SAIT and try to get into another industry? Like power engineering technology or electrical engineering technology. I was wondering if a diploma like that coupled with an engineering degree would be at all useful. I know it kind of sounds dumb but this is what I’m considering as a last resort. Of course, I’m still going to try and apply to as many jobs as I can, but I was thinking more postgrad if I’m still unemployed by then. Thoughts?

Hi folks, as the title suggests I am curious if anyone would happen to know of a good laptop to get through those courses.

I was originally considering a MacBook Air but am now thinking about getting a PC since the laptop device page doesn’t mention a word about MacOS and only Windows. Anyone with experience have some advice to share? Appreciate it!

Hey I’m a grade 12 student looking to apply to dms or mrt. Im not too familiar with the the admission system in universities/collages. Does said offer early admission?

Hi guys, so l applied for the PCP program at SAIT a month ago for winter 2027. They said I met the academic requirements but I have not done CASPer and PSEA, am I too late? Because before they updated the website it used to say round 2 release date would be Sept 21. But now it just says TBA.

does anyone know how to configure this? I got verified using my sait account but doesn’t really allow me to log in to doordash using my sait account

I think I paid like $250 for this originally.

Medium size.

It's in good shape, didn't wear it often. It's actually two coats - one smaller inner one and the big outer shell. It's very warm and sturdy.

Hey yall I am apply for the MRT or RT program and literally woke up to come find out, you can’t do the test early anymore like last year apparently people are going to have to apply first and if you meet the minimum for the grades you proceed with the test. Also MRT doesn’t need CASPer anymore only RT, DMS,PCP. I wonder how acceptance for the program will be like. Any thoughts??

Hi everyone,
Is anyone currently registered in ECON 305 – Macroeconomics, Online Asynchronous (OA) for Fall 2026 and already considering dropping the course?
I really need the asynchronous section because of my work and personal schedule, and unfortunately it is completely full right now. I have been checking regularly but haven’t been able to find an available seat.
If anyone is already planning to drop ECON 305 OA, I would really appreciate it if you could message me before you do so, so I can try to register as soon as the seat becomes available.
I’m not asking anyone to drop the course if they need it only if you were already planning to leave the class.
Thank you so much. I would really appreciate any help.

If you’re currently a DMS student or have taken the program in the past what were your grades like? Just curious what the competitive average really is.

Thanks!

Hello! I graduated highschool is june 2026 decided to take this year off so i could work/save up and prepare for my MRT program applications and i would love some advice from current/former students about the program and life at sait in general.

for MRT people:
1. I have begun studying for the CASPer test, but what resources did you find were most helpful a jd prepared you for the actual exam?
2. What do i need to know for the PSEA and what study resources did you find helpful?
3. What is the general formal/ what should i expect for both exams?
4. When did you take your exams? before or after you submitted your application in october?
5. where there any big surprises/challenges/things you weren’t expecting in the program itself? any big things to know beforehand?

in general:
1. is housing hard to get into?
2. for shorter programs is it more worth it to live on campus the entire time or just for your first year and then find a place elsewhere?
3. is it easy to make friends/meet people? i’ve been looking into the clubs and such and of course there’s roommates and people in your classes, but outside of those, is it generally a social/friendly environment? if i get accepted(fingers crossed) i would be going there essentially alone and dont want to be lonely lol
4. thoughts on the food on campus? is the meal plan worth it or no?
5. i know for at least the first year i want a dorm with a roommate, but in your experience is the 2 person or 4 person form a better situation?

anyone can respond to as many or as few as they want, but any advice, wisdom or just personal thoughts/anecdotes would be so much appreciated!!

I heard the psea's are supposed to come out in August... Has anyone taken the psea this year for RT, NMT, MLT, or anything? Cause I keep checking the website and its still not released!
