OSAP Course Load Changes
Hello

I reduced my course load from 30 units to 24 units. I have to notify OSAP. The form I have to fill out is here: http://sfas.mcmaster.ca/pdf/2010/101... ST%20FORM.pdf

Do I have to fill out the second page?

If I'm planning to take 6 units during the summer, where do I write that? Does that mean my OSAP loan won't be affected?

If anyone has done this before, what exactly happens? I go to the financial aid office, hand them the form, then what?


Thanks in advance!

Not sure if you have to fill the second page if everything is the same.

Spring/Summer is completely separate from Fall/Winter. You can apply for OSAP in spring/summer but I think you need to take at least 9 credits.

You usually just wait, they'll update your entitlement (if needed) which will change how much you get in January.
