MPP, Kathryn McGarry, talks OSAP at Southwood Secondary School.

Southwood students were encouraged to take a look at the free online calculator at ontario.ca/OSAP

The Ontario Student Assistance Program (OSAP) is a financial aid program that can help you pay for college or university.

OSAP offers funding through two kinds of money:

• grants: money you don’t have to pay back
• a student loan: money you need to repay once you’re done school

When you apply for OSAP, we automatically consider you for both grants and loans. If you don’t want to take a loan, you can decline it after your application is approved.

There are also programs to help you repay your student loan once you’re done school. Full-time students may be eligible for free tuition.
