Co-op students are eligible to apply for OSAP during their study terms, and can apply for full-time funding when taking courses while completing their work term.
Before applying, there are some things to consider:
Note: You are required to log in to access the OSAP Winter and Spring Extension Forms. Login instructions: Enter your MyLaurier username and Laurier password. If you are unsure of your password, please contact the ICT Service Desk at support@mylaurier.ca. If the form is slow to load a refresh of the webpage will allow the page to load correctly.
If you have questions about how to apply for OSAP while on your co-op work term, email the Laurier Financial Aid office.
Repayment of previous OSAP loans begins 6 months after your last confirmed full-time study period end date. If you are on a 4 month work term, as long as your OSAP account is in good standing and you fully complete a new OSAP application or the appropriate extension form(s) (including submission of all required documents) for your next study period before the end of your 6 month grace period so your enrolment is confirmed to the National Student Loan Service Center (NSLSC) repayment should not begin.
If you are registered in a work term that is longer than 4 months, a Continuation of Interest Free Status form on your OSAP application is required to inform the National Student Loan Service Centre of your full-time work term status. Interest Free status forms must be submitted by the required deadline and cannot be submitted for past terms.
If you have questions about how to maintain interest-free status while on your extended co-op work term, contact the Laurier Financial Aid office.
