Provincial/Canadian Student Loans
Students at Master’s
are eligible to apply for financial assistance
from the Canadian and Provincial Student
Loan programs. Students from Ontario
enrolled in the Diploma or Degree programs offered at Master’s
may be eligible, if qualified, for assistance under
one or more of the following components of the Ontario
Student Assistance Program (OSAP): Canada Student
Loans Program and/or Ontario Student Loans Plan (OSL).
Students from other provinces may also be eligible,
if qualified, for assistance under their provincial
student assistance program. Additional inquires regarding
student loans/grants should be directed to our Financial
Aid Office or to the provincial Student Loans Offices
listed below.
Although Master’s does not advocate
that a student go into debt, if there is any possibility
that a loan will be needed, early application (when
applications become available) is encouraged to ensure a shorter processing
time.
In spite of this access to funds, students
are cautioned to borrow as little as possible,
keeping in mind
that the loans must be repaid at a time when there
may be heavy financial obligations.
