August – Tips of the Month from Financial Aid and Awards
Tip #1. Know a student who needs a student loan for September? It’s not too late! On-line
applications are available at www.StudentAidBC.ca
Tip #2: If you are applying for student loans be sure the courses you register in meet Student Aid BC requirements – minimum of 9 post-secondary credits. These credits CANNOT include upgrading courses or course(s) you have already received a passing grade in.
Tip #3: ESL or Upgrading courses? Students may qualify for the Adult Upgrading Grant. Contact Financial Aid and Awards for details.
Tip #4: Awarded a UFV Scholarship or Leadership award? Congratulations! Expect your cheque in the mail this month! Tuition based awards will be applied directly to your account by Sept 24.
Tip #5: Time is the coin of your life. It is the only coin you have, and only you can determine how it will be spent. ~ Carl Sandburg
