Thread: Osap tips/advice/questions (New)

Oh well sunny, I don't give a crap anymore. Really tired of taking the highroad and continually being crapped on. There is no way in hell any of the idiots that frequent these forums are ever going to benefit from the knowledge I have after their complete and utter lack of any kind of respect or even common decency... The real kicker that lead to my deleting all my posts in this thread was that several of those geniuses were coddled...

You guys are dicks. "It must be that time of the month", "attention ho", "post deletion = bitter"? Are you all 12 years old? Thanks CSK'sMom for all the help you've given (especially to me), and I'm sorry you won't be in this thread anymore. Rishi, I'm disappointed. You're a pretty cool guy in OT (from what I've read), and your sarcasm has no place in...

He seems to think he knows all the facts as well and obviously knows absolutely nothing. Ya we know, you're so poor you use leaves to wipe you ass and your parents are too damn lazy to send you a care package when you're over 10 hrs from home and can't come home. Oh, poor you cause no one ever cared enough about...

His loan papers were picked up and negotiated on the 9th of Sept. and his Canada student loan amount was deposited early last week. On Friday his Ontario...

I have just been approved for the textbook grant, but it said a cheque is being mailed to my old address!! I have already updated my address long time ago on the OSAP website, so what can I do now to correct this issue immediately?

If it is part of a loan you'll go through the same route you went before: -Papers for you to sign and fill bank info -Signed documents returned to appropriate place -You wait for it to get deposited again If the...

Look at your bank statements over the school year, etc and figure it out. For future reference most people keep a seperate bank account for just OSAP and use that account for all their educational expenses. If they work they use a seperate account for...
