I'm also still being assessed and I also applied the first day...I guess they probably won't finalize till the 29th.
Jan 29 is the magic date they put on the Student Financial Aid site.

from the bursary page on mugsi:
**IF YOUR STATUS IS 'DENIED' PLEASE NOTE THE FOLLOWING: DUE TO AN INCREASE IN BURSARY/OSAP APPLICATIONS AND LIMITED BURSARY FUNDS, STUDENTS WHO DID NOT PICK UP ALL AVAILABLE OSAP BY JANUARY 15TH HAVE BEEN DENIED BURSARY ASSISTANCE. 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. :(

Well I guess me picking up OSAP early this semester makes up for me paying $200 in interest for picking it up late in November  |
