As an international student, you can apply to a variety of our baccalaureate and applied degrees, diploma and certificate programs.
Our programs are designed to give you the skills and confidence you need to be successful in your career.
Through our state-of-the-art labs, living classrooms, capstone projects and internships, SAIT provides you with a skills-based education and ample exposure to the industries you are training to enter.
Please note: Due to the popularity of our health programs and SAIT's mandate to first provide access to domestic students, some of our programs are not accepting applications from international students at this time.
