Ontario Student Assistance Program (OSAP)
Who is Eligible for OSAP?
To be eligible for OSAP, you (or your parents/spouse/sponsor) must have been a resident of Ontario for at least 12 months before the application’s study period and not have been enrolled in full-time post-secondary studies during this 12-month period.
You must also:
- Be a Canadian citizen, permanent resident of Canada, or a protected person
- Be applying for an approved post-secondary program
- Be enrolled in an eligible course load:
- Full-time OSAP application - minimum of 60 per cent of a full semester course load (or minimum 40 per cent of a 100 per cent course load for students with a documented permanent disability)*
- Part-time OSAP application – between 20 and 59 per cent of a full semester course load
*Students with a documented disability may be eligible for full-time OSAP funding with enrolment in a 40 per cent or more course load. To qualify, students must self-identify as having a disability when applying for OSAP and have their health care professional complete the OSAP Disability Verification Form. The completed form should then be submitted to Humber’s Financial Aid office.
