Student loan processing
First, make sure you're enroled full-time for the Winter Term and have photo ID with you. Loans that do not have a "remit amount" need to be certified by Enrolment Services before they can be processed.
You can bring your confirmed loan documents along with your SIN card and photo ID to a participating Canada Post outlet to have it processed.
Edulinx will also be on campus to process student loans in MacKimmie Library Block. Processing is available from Jan. 10 - 14 between 9 a.m. - 4 p.m.
