When I picked up my osap today I used my Canada student grants to pay some of my tuition. How do I indicate that I used my grants to pay for tuition on the mugsi payment agreement. The Canada Student Grants is not included in my mugsi osap amount.

I think the Canada Grant and the OSAP are just added together and you for your tution from the total amount. So you could just select osap as a payment option and that should be fine.
I'm not 100% sure about this so If someone else can confirm this, that would be great. Or you can ask the financial aid office to confirm.

That's weird because I'm pretty sure all grants associated with osap should show up in the osap amount as is the case the grants I have received. I'm not sure why you would need to indicate it on your payment agreement. Just check your account statement to ensure McMaster has recieved the money and you should be fine.

I think canada student loan and Ontario student loans are added to get my osap amount, but there is an additional $372 that form CANADA student Grants that is not included in my total osap amount.

You could probably just add that amount in the external funding option available on the payment agreement but I would call financial aid first just to be sure.

I have the same amount missing from my osap as well. What I did was pay the amount without that adding 372 and when I go to pick up osap ill make them put the 372 in my bank account.
