I failed three of my courses, do I still get funding.
Hi, This is my first year in University. During the winter semester I fell sick and honestly hit a depressive period that resulted in me failing three of my five courses funded by Osap. This means I fall short of the 60% requirement.
To get my GPA up, I paid out of pocket for three summer courses that work with my degree. Though, based on my research Osap doesn't see my summer courses since they focus on what they paid for.
I am aware they have a one year grace period, where they still pay for funding. Osap pays for my student housing and courses for the year, I live pretty far from my University a commute would be impossible.
I'm not in a place where I can communicate this with my parents safely. So, any advice on how I can get the issue solved without having to get them involved? I know there is something about an Academic Probation Form, I am unaware of the process.
What steps should I take now, Osap submissions recently opened up and I'm honestly terrified. I am not diagnosed either, so I don't think I can list my mental health as an excuse to financial aid office? (I read an older post where they suggested emailing them)
Thank you, for your time.
