Study Period

2022-23 OSAP Application for Part-time Students

Your study period is the time period during the current academic year in which you are considered to be in school. This time period, which is set by your postsecondary institution, is used to determine the amount of your aid, as well as various deadlines to submit applications or supporting documents.

Note:

If you are in school for more than one term (also known as a semester) during the current academic year and your course loads are different for each term, each term is considered a separate study period and you will have to submit a separate part-time application for each term. In that instance, the start date and end date that you enter for each application will correspond to the course load for the term in question.
