OSAP and Sept 1 Deadline
I applied for OSAP late as in just before Aug 31, and I know we have to pay tech. by Sept. 1 if we haven't applied for OSAP, else we get the interest. So me being careful I paid my tuition fully just in case my OSAP doesn't get finalized in time (hence why I can't check OSAP in my Payment Agreement which makes me worried). What happens with my potential OSAP loan? Did anyone else have a similar experience?
EDIT: As in will Mac refund me back the amount of money granted to me by OSAP eventually? Does anyone know?

You would just pick up your OSAP. Since you can't check OSAP in your payment agreement, you OSAP never goes to the university.

So when I go to pick it up I just get a physical cheque instead of the bunch of papers we usually get? |

The cheque gets mailed, takes a couple of weeks or probably a month. You can provide your banking information and they'll do a direct deposit which takes a week or two.
