Provincial and Territorial Funding

If you are not considered a resident of Ontario but are a Canadian citizen, permanent resident, or protected person, you may be eligible for financial assistance from your provincial or territorial government.

Government Funding by Province

To be eligible for government student aid funding or interest-free status on previous government loans, you must be registered in a government aid approved program. It is your responsibility to ensure your application and all required documentation is submitted as required by the province/territory due dates. 

Form Completion

If you have the required forms from your province/territory financial aid application to verify your enrolment, submit them through the Out of Province Financial Aid Document Completion Request form (2024-25).

You must be fully registered before the Laurier Financial Aid office can process your form.  Forms are processed in date order received and timeline for completion may vary depending on volume. 

When you complete the form: 

  • Ensure all student information is fully completed on your form prior to submission and upload your Out of Province Financial Aid documentation as a PDF file.   

The Laurier Financial Aid office only completes documents related to provincial/territorial financial aid programs with this form request. If you are requiring completion of a form to verify enrolment for other purposes, review the information on Transcripts, Letters and Form Requests. 

Submission of forms or documents through this form for OSAP or any other purposes will be deleted.

Late Payment Fees

Late payment fees related to an provincial/territorial government student aid payment that is applied directly to your student account will be reversed provided:

  • the government student aid funding received covers the full amount owing, and
  • your government student aid funding is applied directly to your Laurier student account from your government student aid program within one month from the first day of classes each term
Please note, not all provinces/territories allow for direct payment of fees to Laurier.  It is the student's responsibility to be aware of your province/territory's payment policies.  It is also the student's responsibility to ensure all required forms and information have been submitted to complete their government student aid application and to ensure all fees are paid each term.  

Outstanding Fees

If your available provincial/territorial government student aid funding does not cover all of your outstanding fees on your Laurier account, it is your responsibility to pay the difference prior to your Laurier invoice due date to avoid late payment fees.

Students are responsible for payment of fees added to their Laurier account after government student aid funding for the term has been processed.
