OSAP release
So I was looking at the section where it says what to bring in order to get your OSAP and one of the requirements is "A void cheque/banking information". I'm wondering if it's absolutely mandatory because I don't have a bank account or anything so I don't know where I could get this from.

Would it take my mom's if I got hers? But I don't understand what happens when I give that to them because I don't want anything happening to my mom's account.

You only need your banking information if OSAP isn't going towards McMaster. They would take any bank account though.

Ah, I see... and what do I do if I have to pay Mac $7500 in September but OSAP is only funding me $7300 in the beginning. How would I be able to pay the other $200 from my own money because I'd need to do so. It's not part of my balance fee with interst because my OSAP doesn't give me %60 of the total in September which is odd.

In your payment agreement it only states you owe McMaster 200$ on September 1st?

No see Mac told me I only have to give them 60% of my OSAP in the beginning of September, but for some reason OSAP isn't giving me 60% and i'm $200 short because of them. So my question is how am I going to be able to put in the extra $200?

You can pay McMaster via cheque, online banking or interac.
