Hey everyone, I'm just working on a project and having a bit of trouble finding some information. If you are from one of these provinces and receiving a student loan, could you let me know what your payment schedule is? Ei. Do you receive once a year in september, twice a year in september and january, monthly, etc.

ON
BC
SK
AB
NL
NS
QC
MB

Thanks, very much appreciated.

Sorry- to clarify I mean the schedule to which they pay you. Like at the start of september did they give you a lump sum of the 30k or 5 grand/semester or something along those lines.

i have not starting paying my bc student aid off yet bcuz i do not have to start paying back student aid bc until 6 months after i graduate in may, so most likely ill start be paying my bc student loans money back next november or december but i am not sure how it really works or how much i need to pay them back each month]

From BC payments are received at the start of each semester. The amount is dependent on your declared unmet financial need or if you have or have not received a grant

I don't receive any, but in Qc, if you are a full time student, you receive the money the first of each month(or a couple of days before) and if you are a part time student, you receive your loan at the beginning of the semester.
