Does anyone know if the disability grant is calculated differently for a 12 month grad program? (52 week a year program)

Do you think the application has already taken that into account or will it lower the amount again?

I’m so confused: just did the aid estimator on the OSAP website. It estimated:
$2800 grant (disability ) + $45500 loan = $48300
(Yes this is new estimator for 26-27)

On my application I entered the exact same info and it estimated:
$2800 grant (disability) + $15400 loan = $18200

Why are the loan amounts so different?

(This is for a graduate program)

….. I understand the tuition money is deposited directly to the school but for the remainder amount , when is it deposited and in how frequent instalments? (E.g. once a year or once a semester etc)

Has anyone had luck getting approval for permanent disability with having a mental illness like bipolar? I’ve had this diagnosis since 2012 , my family has been involved with care and prescribes me meds every month. I have an appt with her this week to go over the form. Any advice on how to fill it out?

All my forms are in except the disability form. I meet with my doctor next week.
The status right now says “application received”.
I’ve added bankruptcy discharge and the related documents under optional documents to try to get ahead. (Bankruptcy from 13 years ago; no student loan history)

I had a bankruptcy in 2012. No student loans involved. Discharged with no issues. Have good credit since. I have the certificate.
Will OSAP still approve me? It is for a grad degree.
