Hey Aska!!<\/p>\n

Just curious if you know why U of T posts full tuition owing, and starts charging interest in July, when OSAP themselves note that recipients won’t receive their funding until “a couple weeks” after classes start (in this case, not until the end of Sept). It just seems unfair to have to spend? around $150 monthly in interest, when I don’t have access to funding or rich parents. Yet another U of T money grab?<\/p>\n

Thanks!<\/p>\n

Uhhhhh soooooooo UofT doesn’t start charging interest<\/a> until November 15 so you can cool your jets for now and await your OSAP in peace.<\/p>\n

A.k.a. nope, not a money grab from UofT.<\/p>\n

As for the bitterness that seems to be attached to your quotations<\/a> over there, just a be tea dubs: the reason you don’t actually get your OSAP money until “a couple of weeks” into courses is to make sure you’re actually in said courses and that you’re not the money grabber. \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n
