The scholarship from the university has not shown up yet, primarily because they are still reviewing everyone's final marks from highschool.
If you want to use OSAP, check off OSAP in the box to the left - then on the box beside it to the right, select the plan you want. You can do any option with OSAP.
This explains the different payment options.

Don't worry if you're not completely sure yet, you can always change your payment agreement later (Before the end of August). Just always "confirm" at the end.

You should choose the payment plan that best suits your financial situation.
Scholarships will be available later on, they haven't distributed them yet.
You should confirm your payment agreement as soon as possible. Then you can just re-confirm it when something changes (You know the amount of OSAP given, you get a scholarship, etc)

You have to wait until you receive your osap, which means go to osap.com, check under status. They will mail you or print out forms to sign and mail to Mcmaster financial office. Once that is complete, solar>payment> click scholarship, osap, and I think depending on how much is tuition, you will have to pay the leftover by check.

You can pay later, you should see the deadline when you click on summary in your payment agreement.

could somebody here please clarify the procedure involved in the Late Payment Agreement Fee? If I confirm my Payment Agreement on September first AGAIN, is that considered a late Payment Agreement confirmation?
When's the last day to make changes to our Payment Agreement?
And what forms do we have to mail in to Gilmour Hall by Aug. 15th if we're using OSAP as a payment agreement?

"September 1:
A $50 Late Payment Agreement Fee will be assessed for registration AFTER this date."
http://www.mcmaster.ca/bms/student/p...eadlines.p df
Hrrm, I think that answers it.
Edit: As for the forms for Gilmour Hall.
"August 15:
All forms relating to your Payment Plan and Funding Options are due in Gilmour Hall 209 (ie. EASIF, MPP Contract, Sponsorship Letters – International Graduate Students)."
I assume they also mean the supporting documentation forms that you received from OSAP that you were supposed to fill out and send to McMaster.
