BA/BS in Actuarial Science is a bachelor's degree in Actuarial Science programme taught at University of Regina in Regina, Canada. The programme runs for 4 years. Tuition for international students is CAD 31,110 per year (CAD 8,888 per year for local students).
This Bachelor of Science in Actuarial Science takes four to five years and is offered through the Faculty of Science. It teaches students to apply mathematics, statistics, and risk theory to the design of insurance and pension programs, with coursework in actuarial mathematics and models, finance, accounting, statistics, probability, and economics. The program is accredited by the Canadian Institute of Actuaries, one of only eleven such programs in Canada, and its courses can count toward professional actuarial designations. A one-year internship component lets students earn three credit hours toward the degree while working in the field at insurance, pension, or consulting firms. The program is described as the only one of its kind offered in Saskatchewan. It suits students who are detail-oriented and analytical and interested in a business-facing application of mathematics rather than pure theory. Graduates are described as moving into roles such as actuary, financial analyst, data analyst, investment analyst, budget analyst, and account manager, with the page citing close to full hiring success in the actuarial industry.

Admission Requirements: The actuarial science page only says transfer applicants must meet 'the admission requirements for the Faculty of Science' and links to the general application guide; the specifics below come from the Faculty of Science's Saskatchewan high-school pathway, which applies to actuarial science as a standard (non-Computer-Science) Science major. Final admission needs Saskatchewan Secondary standing with English Language Arts 30, Pre-Calculus 30, and two of Biology 30, Calculus 30, Chemistry 30, Computer Science 30, Earth Science 30 or Physics 30, assessed to a 70% average. Applicants missing one of the five subjects but averaging 70% on the rest, or averaging 65-69.99% with all five subjects present, are admitted as Science Qualifying students. International applicants must also meet English proficiency: IELTS Academic 6.5 overall (no band below 6.0), TOEFL iBT 83 (4.5 overall from 21 January 2026), PTE Academic 59, CAEL 60, or Duolingo 120.
Application Details
Application Deadline:Domestic applicants to the University of Regina apply for Fall 2027 entry with a recommended early deadline of 15 March 2027 for best course selection and a final new-applicant deadline of 15 August 2027; Winter 2027-28 entry has an early deadline of 1 November 2026 and a final deadline of 15 December 2026, and Spring/Summer 2027 entry closes 15 April 2027. International (study-permit) applicants share the same final deadlines as domestic students for each term but have no separate early deadline. Numerous named programs, including Nursing, Social Work, Bachelor of Indigenous Social Work, Indigenous Fine Arts and Indigenous Education, carry their own earlier deadlines instead of the general dates. Admission is not described as rolling; late non-competitive applications are simply carried to the next term the program accepts. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
