rule you are considered to be a resident the province or territory in which your parents live at the time you apply or if you are married or qualify as independent of the province in which you last lived for at least consecutive months Many students from outside Ontario who are accepted into Sheridan come to the college and then apply to their province for their student loan said Mrs Newton It can be done this way but since the deadline for application is Sept 30 and since is of prime importance for many students students are advised to work through their own provincial government before arriving in Ontario Mrs Newton will however assist these by providing them with the address in their province to which they must write for the loan application form The student may then bring the application in to the college to have the cost breakdown of the program listed on the form It is then sent back to the appropriate government agency for processing Students can either the application to Sheridan so the cost of the program can be filled out or write to Sheridan from their province for the cost of the program The application can then be processed during the summer months and the student should receive a reply before school starts Its when the application has to be sent back and forth to the province that delays are encountered Quebec is the only exception to the rule The

students are expected to make a financial contribution toward their postsecondary education Neither students nor their parents can transfer their financial contribution to the province on the basis of arbitrary decisions on their pari Each assessment is entirely different and it is therefore Impossible to compare one student with another In certain circumstances if a student has a strong case he or she can make an appeal to the government for reevaluation of their award Once the loan goes through the province sends a certificate of eligibility to the students which they must bring to Sheridan for signature Student Awards Of ficer The certificate is then negotiable at any bank For Ontario students at Sheridan the certificates are sent from the ministry directly to the Student Awards Officer
