How to Apply for Funding

Please note that you can receive OSAP for Micro-credentials funding for one course at a time and the deadline to apply for OSAP is the end of the study period (ie. last day of your course or program).

To apply, please complete the following steps:

1. Confirm that the Humber offering you want to take is approved for OSAP for Micro-credentials funding.
2. Log in to your OSAP account. If this is your first time applying for OSAP, you may need to create an account.
3. Select and complete the micro-credential OSAP application.
4. Scan, upload, and submit all required supporting documentation to your OSAP application.
5. Enroll in and pay for the course or program you wish to take (if you have not already done so). Please note that you must be registered in the program or course and payment must be made in full at the time of registration in order for OSAP to be released.
6. Once the course has started, Humber will confirm your enrolment and OSAP funds will be released to your bank account.
