USask to deliver Spring and Summer 2020 classes online

Spring and Summer courses will be held at the University of Saskatchewan, but in an online (remote) delivery mode only. With online (remote) delivery for Spring and Summer classes, students will not need to be on campus. As not all classes currently listed in the Spring and Summer 2020 class calendar are suited to online delivery, it is anticipated there will be some changes to the classes offered. All Spring and Summer 2020 classes are currently being reviewed.
