天美社区

You must be a Canadian citizen / permanent resident or convention refugee and resident of Quebec and a full time student. The calculation is based on gross family income.

天美社区’s institutional code is 933000.

Students who are “deemed full-time” are eligible for funding through the Summer session.

You are “deemed full-time” if you fit into one of the following categories.

• you are a graduating student with less than four courses
• single parent with children under the age of 12
• married with children under the age of 6

A guarantee certificate is the agreement between the ministry and the student to allow for your funding to be deposited directly into your bank account.

You must start to pay back your loans when you are no longer a full-time student. Payment arrangements will be made through your financial institution.

For a 2 year pre-university program, students can receive funding for a maximum of 33 months. For a 3 year technical program, students can receive funding for a maximum of 42 months.

If you do not qualify as an autonomous student, then yes your parents income is required.

Autonomy is defined by the Aide Financi猫re aux 茅tudes as:

• married, divorced or widowed
• parent or 20 weeks pregnant
• out of full-time studies for 7 years
