Government student loans
If you are a Canadian citizen or permanent resident, you can apply for financial assistance from the federal and provincial governments to pursue post-secondary education. The level of financial assistance you are eligible for is determined by your financial need and personal circumstances.
Government student loans are interest-free while you attend full-time post-secondary studies. Repayment of student loans begins six months after you stop being a full-time student. The interest rate and terms of repayment are set at the time of approval.
How to apply |
You must apply through the province in which you are a resident (i.e., the last province in which you spent 12 consecutive months as a non-full-time student). Please apply as early as possible. Processing can take four to six weeks and must be completed prior to the end of the semester in which you are using the loan. Alberta residents can apply online or download form Student Aid Alberta.
