Today, some students learned their #OSAP funding amounts for the upcoming year. Many will receive significantly less than they did last year, confirming students’ concern that recent OSAP changes will make it more difficult to afford #PSE in Ontario.

Ontario kids finding out tonight that @FordNation has decreased the amount of student loans they will receive. On the upside @Fordnation increased the housing allowance for MPP’s by 20% ”. tinyurl.com/y2a47hhg tinyurl.com/yyuajcyx #OnPoli #WTF
