OSAP 202 WHAT’S NEXT? …. ET MAINTENANT?
Introduction • Cette présentation est pour les étudiants qui ont déjà rempli une demande pour le RAFÉO cette année • Learn about how to stay in OSAP’s good books while in school, and beyond • Not for graduating students (unless you’re going to grad school!) check out the Repaying OSAP presentation on the MyGlendon website • Questions et réponses
Agenda • RAFÉO pour l’été • OSAP and Exchange programmes • Timing issues • Bad things that can happen and how to avoid them
RAFÉO pour l’été • Extension of your fall/winter OSAP • One page application on York website • Enroll in courses first • Don’t have OSAP in fall/winter? Use the OSAP website application
OSAP for next year • Demande disponible maintenant • Fill it in by June 30: pay your tuition a month late (sans intérêts!) • You don’t have to be enrolled in classes to apply • Envoyez-nous les pages de signatures!
Not sure you want OSAP? Mais POURQUOI?! • OSAP Grants • Bourses de York et des Amis de Glendon • Ontario Student Opportunity Grant
Not sure you want OSAP? • You sure? Okay then…. • Interest free status = you make no payments, no interest accrues • Continuation of Interest Free Status Form (CIFS) – Glendon, September IF there is a delay in getting your OSAP in the fall, fill in one of these forms too!
Bill drops one 6 year credits course November 10th. He adds a 3 credit winter course Nov 10th No OSAP funding Nov – 10 to Jan 3 ( cause part time) Bill drops one 6 credit course Jan 3rd He adds a winter course Jan 4th Still full time, gets OSAP for both terms Timing is everything Simple fact: OSAP is for full time students Full time = 9 credits per term ( 6 for students with disabilities) Example September: Bill has 3 year long courses Remember-Ask us, if you are in doubt about dropping a course
Honesty is the best policy • Changements à votre charge de cours • Financial changes • Status changes ( independent, divorced, married..) • Fill in change forms on MyGlendonwebsite and drop them off to us
Overawards / Trop-versés • OSAP says they gave you too much money • 1st time, aucun problème • 2nd time – you pay back the overaward before they give you more OSAP • Due usually to income changes, course load changes Our advice: if the first over award is small, pay it back to keep a clean slate
Full Restriction • The thing you NEVER want to see • OSAP restricts you from applying for 5 years (Yes, you will probably be done by then!) • Normalement c’est parce que vous avez ‘oublié’ de mentionner l’argent que vous avez gagné pendant l’année scolaire….
Academic probation • Not the same as Glendon’s academic probation • Means not successfully completing at least 18 credits; or multiple programme switches, or being in 1st year for 3 years… • Can get OSAP when on probation, but if you are not successful a second time, then you pay for school in the future, not OSAP
Programmes d’échange • Official programme with York or Glendon Apply for OSAP through Glendon exchange code Not official exchange programme Apply through university you are going to…. If it is recognized by OSAP….
Les embûches à éviter • Wrong answer regarding residency • Revenue pendant la période d’études
More potholes • Income: what to put in, what NOT to put in. Use the green hyperlinks!
Even more potholes! • NSLSC doesn’t know you are in school full time • Programme code (Glendon’s not York’s!) • OSOG (do your taxes!)
