What’s procedure to receive OSAP for spring/summer terms? Do I have to re-apply for OSAP if I’m planning to take summer courses? or do they extend it themselves?

you have to go to the financial aid and scholarships office and fill out a form called a summer addendum. You have to take at least 2 courses to be eligible

Is it just two you have to take? I thought you needed a full summer load (12 units).

You need just 2. I only took 2 last summer and got osap

is it two courses per term or two courses in the entire summer school period?

that i am not sure about cause i took both courses in 1 term. more info can probably be found on the registrar's office website

Do we apply for Summer OSAP now? Or after we register for courses later in the month?

you can apply now as long as you know what courses you want to take (you don't have to take wait until you actually pick them). The form is out

it's two courses per term.
so you can't get coverage if you take one in first term and one in second term, they have to both be in the same term.

So I just fill out this form and hand it to the financial aid office?
