Whoa, 1 hour to finish everything inside? It doesn't usually take that long...

You lose track of time when you're bored. LOL. Seemed like an hour to me. Maybe around 30 - 45 minutes inside (actual time).

There's 2 steps inside. The first is confirming all the information is correct, followed by some initialling. The second is getting the money to where it's supposed to go (McMaster or the bank) followed by some signatures.

You have to present your identification information at the door. Then you go pick up your papers at Table 1.

Then, at table 2, they explain everything to you then sign a couple of blanks.

Then at table 3, they ask you for your banking info, then sign 5 blanks, then off you go with a couple of papers.

You don't have to do anything else afterwards.

Wow, 5 signatures? I clearly don't remember how many times I signed last year XD

After the difference has been paid out to your bank account, it's time to use it! XD

can someone please answer my question earlier in this thread.
Also, if I have changes that need to be made to the osap, since I didn't get the amount of scholarship money I predicted, do I tell them when I pick up the loan

I don't think you do because you have to go release your second installment at a later date which is when you would give them your banking info. If you're first installment is all going to the university, you won't need any banking info.
