Fees/Payments/Registration Osap wants me to start repaying despite being enroled?

So at 10pm last night i got an email saying I'm going to start repaying my loans. Thr problem is 1. I can't afford to start paying them and rent and 2. Im still enrolled

Due to my reduced course load im taking a single semester as a part time student however I didnt receive osap for it due to applying for a full time semester before I knew whether or not id be considered a full time or part time student.

Is there anything i can do to delay repayment? If i start paying it back now im going to have to move back to my home town and drop out of college as money even with osap is tight

I understand that most of this is my fault and I'm trying to not panic or beat myself up over it. Im just not sure what i can do

I get that it's stressful, but have you called them and explained your situation?

Go online to your NSLSC account. They have some highlighted hyperlinks on how to confirm your enrollment

You can call and have the option of extending the repayment term which makes it a super low rate to pay back. If they won’t extend the time you don’t have to repay that may work.

Call them. They’ve been super understanding in the past. They’ll probably have you fill out a form and then defer it.
