Hello all,

I hope this doesn't get anyone's hopes up only to be shattered, but here is my story:

I applied for the bursaries, and saw Denied about the 27th. Just 15 minutes ago, I received an e-mail saying that a bursary had been credited to my account. I assumed that this was just a generic form letter sent to everyone who applied in error, but the optimist in my told me to check my MUGSI account. When I checked, I had been changed to Awarded, with the money being credited to my account.

So, if you got Denied before the 29th, check your e-mail and MUGSI to see if your entitlement was changed.

Nope, nothing for me. :(

Did they say why you weren't credited in the first place?

No, it was just out of the blue.

STUDENTS WITH OSAP OVERPAYMENTS AND STUDENTS WITH OSAP (OR EQUIVALENT NEED) LESS THAN $2500 WERE ALSO DENIED BURSARY ASSISTANCE. THESE STEPS WERE TAKEN TO ASSIST STUDENTS WITH THE GREATEST NEED.

-that's why there are so many denials. :(

So I can only assume that sniderj was one of the lucky few this changed impacted who received between $2000 and $2500 of OSAP.
