For benefit of both the university and the institution, affiliation is granted at the discretion of the Senate."

Gabriel Dumont Institute of Native Studies and Applied Research is affiliated with the University of Regina. Colleges affiliated with the University of Saskatchewan include: Briercrest College and Seminary, Horizon College and Seminary, College of Emmanuel and St. Chad, Gabriel Dumont College, Lutheran Theological Seminary, St. Andrew's College, and St. Peter's College.
