Yup, as long as the program is designated as an undergraduate degree (which I think all in Canada are), you should put bachelor’s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct me if I am wrong Check out this link, in the blue box under "what is available" medicine is classified as a professional program. https://studentaidbc.ca/repay/repayment-help/bc-completion-grant At UBC, our student financial support person always instructs us to put bachelor’s degree. That’s what I put this year and in previous years, and I’ve already had this year’s application approved. edit: the exception is if you’re doing an MD PhD, in which case I believe you’d put Doctorate.

orangeisthenewblack Posted June 12, 2018 Report Share Posted June 12, 2018 I accidentally submitted my application and put professional instead of bachelor Would that mean that I wouldnt get the grant? Would I be able to submit a reassessment form to change it to bachelors, or even reapply next year as a bachelor? Kinda stressed out about this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very simple: submit the appendix 7 from https://studentaidbc.ca/sites/all/files/form-library/appendix_7.pdf You only need to change question #25, and I think you should be fine. Call them if you have any additional concern. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
orangeisthenewblack Posted June 12, 2018 Report Share Posted June 12, 2018 Do you think they would really change it though from Professional to Bachelor? I'm thinking that most people select Bachelor because it's technically correct and they get extra benefits or whatnot from doing it, but StudentAidBC I'm worried would go "well technically according to our system, medicine is considered a professional program so why would we change it" Alberta also had to submit an Appendix 3 for me because the program wasn't listed when I applied, and they also listed my program as professional Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
