Entrance Scholarship & OSAP Help
Hey guys, my OSAP application was recently processed so I was checking out my Payment Agreement today and saw that I can get $750 from McMaster's entrance scholarship. The thing is, I didn't indicate this entrance scholarship on my OSAP app - I totally forgot about it. :S What should I do now?

don't worry about it, when you go to pick up your OSAP in september the workers will ask you about any additional income you got (from scholarships, bursaries, if you happened to get a job after you submitted your application etc), and then they submit the changes for you.

it happens to a lot of people, happened to me last year since i submitted my application in may and found out i was getting a scholarship at the end of july.

You could always contact them and notify them of the change in income and give them the necessary documents for proof. I suggest doing do, but you can always wait until OSAP pick-up.

I'd contact SFAS and tell them so that I have a better idea of how much money I will be getting from OSAP so I can plan my finances

I wouldnt worry about it.
In terms of your OSAP, 750$ is pretty insignificant.
