The Exclusive UR Guarantee

An educational journey that leads to a career … guaranteed.

Right now, you are in the midst of searching for a university, but it won’t be long before you’re searching for a job. As a University of Regina graduate, you’ll have more than a degree — you’ll have a guarantee. With the UR Guarantee, we follow through on a promise unheard of among Canadian universities.

We guarantee that you will land a career-oriented job within six months of graduation.
If you don’t, we’ll cover up to another year’s worth of 30 credit hours. Come back to the U of R to add courses to your résumé – without worrying about tuition.

How does the UR Guarantee work?
The exclusive UR Guarantee program will help you navigate your university experience and your career search. You will have access to unique academic, leadership and service opportunities throughout your undergraduate study. After completing the program options and career search criteria, you will land a job within six months of graduation. If you don’t, the U of R will cover up to one year’s worth (30 total hours!) of tuition.

What are the program options?
The U of R wants to help you maximize your experience as a student – and to position you to be a strong contender during your job search. The program requirements and electives are designed to prepare you for both.

Each year of your undergraduate study, you’ll select program options from a ‘menu’ of options including participation in an exchange program, serving as a University Ambassador, performing community service, and many other life-changing opportunities.

How will the U of R help you with your job search?
Throughout your time at the U of R, you’ll be able to take advantage of career counsellors, career fairs, internships, mock interviews, networking, and many more valuable experiences that will help you pursue your job search with confidence.

When you graduate, you will have a respected degree, and you’ll be a well-rounded candidate with community service, global education, and leadership experience. Your U of R transcript will prove it and set you apart from other job candidates.

What are other benefits of the UR Guarantee program, beyond being well-positioned to land a good job?
That’s the best part – in addition to creating an extensive co-curricular transcript that will give you the competitive edge over other graduates, students love what this program offers them immediately:

How will the U of R (and YOU) know that you’ve taken all of the right steps to land a job?
In order to be eligible for the one year (30 hours) of additional undergraduate preparation, you will be asked to maintain a job search/networking log, complete a professional portfolio (résumé, job search letter, search plan and 20-40 employer contacts) and fulfill other job search requirements. These are all necessary steps involved in any successful job search – the difference is that we will help you every step of the way, and we guarantee success.

What qualifies the U of R to offer such an innovative program?
The U of R has a proud tradition of achievements related to career preparation, including:
