Sheptytsky
Institute is owned by the Saskatchewan Ukrainian Episcopal Corporation of Saskatchewan
(Eparchy of Saskatoon). Sheptytsky Institute has been an Integral part of the
Ukrainian Catholic Community and University of Saskatchewan since 1953.
The Institute was built to provide a student residence for the post-secondary training and education of Ukrainian Catholic students and others, and continues with that main purpose. "Sheps" is located across the street from the university campus and St. Thomas More College, just minutes away from classrooms, libraries and all other university facilities.
It is a non-alcohol (dry), non-smoking residence which is here to help facilitate your goal in secondary education. We strive to provide a healthy environment for body, mind and spirit through the cooperation of community, residents and staff.
We look for students who are looking for an academic residence and who have respect for Christian values and ideals with respect to all activities, social and personal relationships. Students will have the opportunity to learn to live in an academic environment and to accept the responsibilities which are part of group living.
