Hi everyone, I hope you're all doing well. I'm asking this on here because I've been waiting for ages for my university's student central/financial aid to get back to me on this (understandable as times are not normal right now), and I want to get moving with my OSAP application.

My school's PT program is 26 months (like most in Canada are), full-time, continuous. On the university's academic calendar, it divides PT students into Year 1 / 2 / 3 (even though the "3rd" year is a short one). OSAP asks how many years the program is...so I'm wondering, if you've already applied for OSAP in the past or this year, what do we put down? Two or three years?

I feel like if we just put 2 years, we won't get any $$ for the final term of studies in the "3rd year" leg of the 26 months. 

From my experience with OSAP,  when you select the program and school, it will say how many months and Im guessing would adjust the $$ accordingly. Try the aid estimator from last year (I don't think this years is up) to see!

Thanks so much for your reply! Ok, I will look again. So far I'm stuck on the very first part of the application, and it only lets me enter years in whole numbers, no months.
