Student loans in Canada

Student loans support tuition and living costs during study and are repaid after your study period ends.

Application

Loans are applied for through your provincial or territorial student aid office alongside grants. Approval depends on program designation, enrolment status and financial assessment.

Repayment

Repayment normally begins after a set period following the end of studies. Repayment assistance may be available for borrowers with lower incomes.

Borrowing carefully

Compare the total cost of a program with realistic earnings in the occupation you are training for before borrowing.
