Hello,<\/p>\n
So. This is my first year back after about 10 years, so I’m a little rusty. I took 1.5 credits this summer, and have just dropped a half-credit (0.5) course.
\nLast week, before I dropped said course, I received a top-up from UTAPs, and was fully intending to continue on in the course, but life happens and an advisor told me I should LWD from it rather than risk failing (which was highly probable). So as of now:
\n1. Will I be on academic probation with OSAP (first time offender),
\nand,
\n2. will I have to pay back the extra top up provided the university? I haven’t spent it all but definitely paid some rent and bought groceries and ttc etc.
\nMuch appreciated!<\/p>\n

hey there B,<\/p>\n
1.\u00a0since you need to be in\/pass at least 1.5 FCEs to be making “sufficient academic progress” in the summer, then yes, you will likely be put on OSAP probation at the end of the summer term. if that happens, you’ll need to write a letter to OSAP explaining what happened and how you’ll make sure that it won’t happen again in future. if you want help with that, you should definitely contact enrolment services<\/a>. i mean, you definitely don’t want my<\/em> help with it<\/a>. as soon as i can’t link to stupid GIFs<\/a> in a written medium, i’m at a loss. stick with enrolment services, for sure.<\/p>\n 2. UTAPs is a grant, so you shouldn’t have to repay it to the university after you receive it. the only instance in which this might\u00a0<\/em>happen would be if you dropped all your courses before you got an instalment. from what i understand, that’s not what happened in your case, so you should be a-ok.<\/p>\n feel free to follow up with your registrar’s office and\/or enrolment services with all this, so they can guide you through this process.<\/p>\n best,<\/p>\n aska<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Hello, So.
