  • M A in English

  • The Department of English provides graduate training in literary studies towards M.A. and Ph.D. degrees. Nearly 30 faculty supervise graduate work in a variety of areas: American, Canadian, Decolonizing, Digital Humanities, Aboriginal, Literature by Women, Theory, Medieval, Renaissance, Restoration/Eighteenth Century, Nineteenth Century, Modern British, and Cultural and Media Studies.

    The MA program offers either a thesis-based or a project-based option, requiring students to do course work and fulfil a language requirement (for the thesis option), and to complete and be examined on a thesis or a project. The Ph.D. program requires students to do course work, fulfil a language requirement, pass a Field Exam, and to propose, complete and be examined on a dissertation. The MA program is normally one to two years of work, and the Ph.D. takes a minimum of four years.

Entry Requirement


  • Applicant must have a bachelor degree passed.

Application Process


    • Proof of English proficiency may be required for international applicants and for applicants whose first language is not English.
    • a completed on-line application, the application fee, and all supporting application documents; application requirements, instructions and deadlines can be found on the department website.
    • a cumulative weighted average of at least a 70%** (USask grade system equivalent) in the last two years of study (e.g. 60 credit units)
    • a four-year honours degree in English, or equivalent, from a recognized college or university
  • *Competitive applicants normally have language proficiency scores higher than the minimum standards set by the College of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies. The department does not currently accept Duolingo scores to assess English language proficiency.

    **Normally, applicants become competitive with a minimum average of 75% overall and 80% in English


    To qualify unconditionally for admission into the MA, you should have the equivalent of an Honours BA from the University of Saskatchewan. This is a degree with 10 full-year courses (or equivalent) in English literature and criticism, covering a wide range of historical periods and critical approaches. The minimum admission requirement for anyone studying under the British system is an Upper Second.

    If your academic preparation is not equivalent to the University of Saskatchewan Honours BA, you may be recommended for admission as a probationary student. If so, the Graduate Committee may require you to take one or more undergraduate courses in specific areas, and get a minimum of 70% in each. You will not be eligible for funding during the qualifying or probationary period.

    To be eligible for the MA program, you must show an undergraduate average of at least 70% (or its equivalent).
