With accreditation anticipated by late September, the university is gearing up to kick off its inaugural admissions cycle, with interviews for potential students scheduled to begin in the spring of 2026.
B.C. Premier Eby, along with Health Minister Josie Osbourne and Minister of Post-Secondary Education Jessie Sunner, will be convening at SFU’s Surrey campus around 9 a.m. on Tuesday for this significant update.
