Hello,
So I went to this site for info on how to take courses as a non-degree student: http://www.adm.utoronto.ca/adm-awards/html/nextsteps/nextstepsndeg/ndeg_application_process.htm
But I’m still confused. What do I do first? Do I just go on ROSI and select a course in mid august? Where could I find the specific date?
I don’t know if this falls in the realm of “ask a student”, but how does OSAP work for non-degree students taking a courses. Are you treated like a normal student and get a loan? Would loan repayment be deferred?
Thanks in advance (I’m glad sites like this exist for clueless kids like me)

Hey hey
Assuming you were a student at UofT, you become a non-degree student automatically following your convocation. So if you look at your ROSI right now, you’ll see some jumbled vowel-less code that essentially says your program is non-degree as opposed to HBA or whatever.
So what do you do first?
Well… you pick courses, I guess.
And, naturally, as you’ve done for the past four or more years, you find your enrolment date in the important dates section!
As for OSAP, things can get a little tricky just because typically, a non-degree student doesn’t come back for a full course load. But feel free to apply for the loans for the nth time and see if they approve it. But if you’re trying to defer your repayment, that’ll again require you being a full-time student.
Cheers!

OSAP does NOT work if you are not in a degree program! I learned this the hard way.
If you need OSAP to take courses, enrol in a degree program of some sort.
