I am a new student and I got a parking permit (P1) but I’m reading different things online saying that even though I have a permit I still might not get a spot if I don’t go early. Some of my classes are at 10 and I don’t want to go earlier if I don’t have to. Can someone confirm if this is true or false?

Guys parking literally sold out in like 5 seconds. What are the odds of me getting parking daily?

Hello, this might sound silly but i’m looking for some advice. I just got accepted last minute for Fall 2026 and am feeling pretty nervous as someone with social anxiety. My in-person orientation is mandatory , but im wondering if it’s necessary to attend the readiness session.

I’m not really into ice breakers or networking and the thought of it makes me really anxious. I’ve been WFM for the past 2 years so this transition is nerve wracking. If I don’t attend the readiness session, do you think I’ll stand out when I show up for just the orientation? Or is the info provided really helpful to get started? Can anyone who’s attended tell me how it works? Any advice welcome. TIA!

hello! i got accepted into the legal assistant program, and i hear a LOT about the keyboarding class. What is the WPM goal for the keyboarding class?

My average is around 100-110 WPM, will that be okay? Should I write and practice more to try and make my average around 130 WPM?

How can I prepare for these? Anyone remember what was on the psea and Casper exams?

hey! just moved to calgary and attending sait for the first time. of course I would be also studying and shi, but i wanna know if dorm parties n whatnot are a thing here?

i wanted to apply to sait for Diagnostic Medical Sonography, in which you need a minimum grade of 75% in Physics 30, Biology 30, ELA 30-1 and Math 30-2. Unfortunately i didn’t meet that requirement in ELA 30-1 and my mark was a 72%. Does this mean I won’t be able to apply at all this October and will have to apply next year?

I am interested taking 2 year Supply Chain Management Diploma.

I just want to know if there is demand for this career.

Hows the job market? For new graduates.

What kind a job title position can I apply for.

Expected starting salary?

Appreciate all your response

How does parking work here? Do they fill up fast? Should I get a pass? Which ones should I avoid? I’m an incoming student and won’t be able to see campus until the first day of classes. Just trying to save myself some stress.

I will be moving to Calgary the last week of August for school. I most likely won’t be able to make it for orientation. Is it stuff I need to know that’s important or would I be okay if I missed it?

Hello everyone I have been upgrading this past year and am interested in applying for DMS and MRT this fall.

Currently im only missing the physics 30 prerequisite for both. Im registered to take physics 20 this fall and 30 the following semester.

I have been researching and apparently I can only apply to get conditional acceptance if I have physics 30 in progress. Is this true ?

tldr; wondering if it’s worth it or even possible to apply for DMS or MRT this fall if I only have physics 20 in progress this semester, but expect to start physics 30 next semester.

I’m starting the Pre-Employment Refrigeration and Air Conditioning program at SAIT this September. I currently have a MacBook and was wondering if anyone who has taken the program knows whether it will work for everything we need in class.

I’d rather not buy another laptop if my MacBook will get me through the program.

Thanks!

I’m 23F and living in Calgary, and I’ve been considering going back to school. I’m just struggling to figure out what direction makes the most sense.

I’d love to study psychology at university because it’s something I’m genuinely interested in, but I’m worried about the cost and how many years I’d potentially have to study before having a career. I also already have student loans from SAIT. I went to SAIT about two years ago for business administration, but dropped out after about half a year because I wasn’t really enjoying the program. I would say I’m more of a creative person, which is why I think science/math subjects don’t really resonate with me.

Now I’m considering going back to SAIT for a different program, I like that most programs are shorter and more affordable, and I could potentially keep working while studying. I also really want a career with decent stability and income because I don’t want to work in the restaurant industry forever. I don’t want to choose a program purely because it seems practical and then end up dropping out again, but I want to study something I’ll actually enjoy while still being realistic about jobs and student debt.

For anyone in Calgary who has been in a similar situation, how did you decide what to study? Would you choose a university degree you’re passionate about, or a shorter SAIT program with a more direct career path?

Hello! Anyone know where I can find my acceptance letter on the portal?

I'm planning on applying to the Fall 2027 Term for the MLT program. If any students who have taken this program can tell me what the schedule was like for this program that would be really great. Also, I'd like to know when did you start your practicum and when did you finish because my parents want to go on a week long vacation in 2028 around July or August and I'm worried it will cause some conflict with scheduling and I'm not 100% sure if I can be excused.

I see that for standard laptop software it says that MacOS isn’t supported. Is it that big of a deal for academic upgrading? Or can I just keep using my mac?

Hello! I have been accepted to MRT 2026 and I know how hard of a process it was to get into the program. So if anyone has any questions about the process for the 2027 intake feel free to message me and I'm willing to answer any questions you might have.
