Queen Elizabeth Scholarship
I just received my funding summary from OSAP and received the Ontario Access Grant for first years, and student loan part and a grant for low income families.
Nothing for the Queen Elizabeth Scholarship though.
My average upon completing high school in February of this year was greater 80% and I mailed in the application from Mississauga on June 8th 2009.
I plan to call up the SFAS tomorrow but am not sure whether this means I'm not going to receive it at all or whether that might change.

Have you sent in your supporting documents yet? The Registrar has to receive them before July17th. Also, I remember getting the QEII scholarship a lot later... I think they have to assess everything.

Yeah, just sit tight; In terms of your payment agreement, you'll probably end up accepting a finalized version with everything listed (scholarships etc.) around the end of July.

I don't think there is anything else. Generally it's only the declarations.
University has forever screwed up my sleeping schedule Lol.

I'm tearing a few pages from your books.
I'm staying up and...waiting for S:heart:LAR.
I figure that if I get the courses I want, I'll just go to bed and I'll skip the Academic Advising session.
But if I don't then I'll probably go to plead in person.

Good idea. The people running the academic advising probably can't do anything about your courses, but the academic advisers for your department may have drop-in times.

Lori Hill is running the session and she's the Business I Academic Advisor
I'm just worried about Psych.
I really really want Psych because...I don't want to stay from 5:30 to 6:30 three days a week...

Speaking of nice people, somebody I know at UTM was informed that since they're so deep into the low income bracket, they have to make an appointment with a financial advisor who will ensure they work as hard as they can to get that kid as much OSAP as possible.

Don't worry, I'm sure you'll get the courses you want.
I don't remember having any problems in my first year.

The maximum allowable number of students are currently using SOLAR. Each student has a 45 minute time limit. Please try again later.
....
It's not 12:01 AM yet!
Though with that logic I shouldn't be on it either
