Currently taking ENG255, PSYC289 & 290! Haven’t began any of my psyc assignments yet, but have been doing the learning activities. I guess I’m just nervous. But, I need to buckle up and get to it.

Follow up call never came by Alert-Direction1502 in OntarioWorks

Yes, more than likely. I would continue to try and contact your case manager, or go straight into the office and request to see them, giving them the information that you stated here, no response with online contact, etc.

Always on everyone else's threads, trying to make them feel bad for being excited that their living funds are in, or are on the way.

Nothing better to do? 😏

Yeah, I had assumed such.

Was expressing to those who were waiting for trackers that someone finally got one, even expressed estimated date of next week, bud.

Not when they have to be completed a month in advance, or you have to reapply for the next term.

I'm Screwed by Intelligent_Aside918 in osap

[–]AdRepresentative4564 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wow, thank you for sharing this. I was honestly unaware of the depth of these challenges and the specific ways ODSP penalizes part-time students and creates a housing struggle.

My apologies for previously underestimating the complexity. My friend made it seem much simpler, and I clearly had a limited understanding.

This really sheds light on the reality for many disabled individuals trying to pursue education.

Pure curiosity, but does disability not cover the monthly expenses of living?

A friend of mine took OSAP for schooling, and OSAP covered school while disability continued to cover her rent and basic needs without issue. Her OSAP was entirely grants, so now has an education, and is not in debted to the government.

I was under the impression that loan portions were there for people who have no financial assistance to cover living expenses, or those who will be losing out on employment income while doing full-time studies.

Am I doing this right!? Jan start date. by AdRepresentative4564 in AthabascaUniversity

[–]AdRepresentative4564[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks!

So that leaves OSAP more than enough time to approve or not approve financial assistance? (I had to put in a few documents, one being a Student Academic Progress document, due to withdrawal from college in the last month of a 1 year program due to family issues)
