Forgotten OAN# Solution
I know that McMaster SFAS suggests everybody apply for OSAP by today, but I just found this out and thought it might help some people.

This only applies to students who have already applied for OSAP in previous years (and doesn't apply to incoming first year students, and probably those who haven't applied for OSAP before).

If you've forgotten your OAN number (which I do almost every year), you can find it on MUGSI:
MUGSI > My Financial Aid & Scholarships > OSAP and Government Assistance
And it should be on that page which summarizes all your OSAP stuff.

Hope this helps.

OEN# is different from OAN#.

OEN# is ur ontario education number. basically the number that the government of ontarion ministry of education sees you as

OAN# is your OSAP access number. and the number we all need to sign into your OSAP app.

trust me, after after 4 years of high school, i still have my OEN# memorized

That's the OEN (Ontario Education Number), not OAN (OSAP access number). They're two different numbers.

There's also a "Forgot your OAN?" link on the OSAP website.
