“Balancing coursework, clinical education, and personal responsibilities requires nursing students to develop consistent time management habits,” said Dr. Solina Richter (DCur), dean of the College of Nursing.
“These students have demonstrated great dedication by balancing the demands of both nursing education and competitive sports. It was a privilege to join the celebration of USask’s Academic All-Canadians and to acknowledge the hard work of these students.”
The U SPORTS Academic All-Canadians are U SPORTS athletes who achieve at least an 80 per cent average on a minimum of 18 credit units while using eligibility as a student athlete.
In 2025-2026, 128 USask Huskies achieved this high standard.
Together we will support and inspire students to succeed. We invite you to join by supporting current and future students' needs at USask.
