Full-time Grad Students: Keep Your Student Loans Interest Free

Do you owe student loans from previous years of study?

Ensure that your lender(s) are aware of your continued registration so that you will not have to begin repaying your loans.

Students with previous OSAP loans need to complete a Continuation of Interest-Free Status. These forms can be validated to confirm your full-time registration in a 60% course load at SGS Student Services, 63 St. George Street.

Please remember that to avoid being charged interest, you need to complete these forms promptly each time you register. The government will not recognize the forms after your study period has ended.

You can check with your lender(s) to ensure they have up-to-date information on your current registration:

National Student Loans Service Centre: 1-888-815-4514 or http://www.canlearn.ca/
CIBC: 1-800-563-2422
Royal: 1-800-363-3822
Scotiabank: 1-888-284-3044
