So how do we get money out of the Student Account? Do we just go to the Aid Office and ask them to write us a cheque?

They subtract any outstanding fees, then automatically mail you the remainder. You don't have to do anything to get your money.

Questionnn: are the first generation student bursaries labelled as something else? cause I'm sure I applied and was eligible for it but the only money I got was from "McMaster" whereas I'm sure the firstgen money is from the ontario government....

Yeah but think of all the hardships you would face...you're a male engineering student. You will be rich even before you finish school, you don't have to worry about tuition fees heheheh
