COVID-19 update

With the health and safety of our students and employees top of mind, SAIT is following the Government of Alberta’s guidance specific to the COVID-19 pandemic.

  • The Residence buildings will be open and accepting students. Prior to applying for Residence please check the status of your program, as your program delivery may be solely online.

  • Housing assignments will be conducted in a manner that promotes physical distancing such that one student will be roomed in a two-bedroom suite and two students will be roomed in a four- bedroom suite and all residents will have their own washroom.

  • Increased sanitization efforts will continue within the Residence buildings.

  • We will continue to comply with protocols related to social distancing and community gatherings.
