OSAP questions
I haven't gotten an email from OSAP in a long time and on the website it says "Your file has been updated with additional information and your OSAP funding has been recalculated." It has been like that for a while now. Should I be worried?
Also, in the funding summary section of the OSAP website it says my total aid is $2,774 (Canada-Ontario Integrated Student Loan and Queen Elizabeth II Aiming for the Top Scholarship). I've looked at around the site and a lot of people have gotten way more than I have, I know it varies from person to person, but I'm just wondering why I got so little in comparison to most people. I have a friend also attending Mac and he claims he got like $8000...

Sounds like everything has been finalized with OSAP, you should be able to pick it up when school starts.
Parents, Assets, Income?

Do you earn? If you do, that makes a huge difference and also, the number of siblings attending post-secondary schools causes a great deal of difference

Oh right number of dependants attending university is huge. I went from getting a loan to not getting a loan when my brother graduated.
