Apply through the student aid office of your province or territory of permanent residence (not where the school is), and to one province only. The federal government covers up to 60% of assessed need and the province or territory the rest; until the end of 2026-27 the Canada Student Grant for full-time students is up to $4,200 a year (up to $525 a month) and the federal loan limit is $300 per week of study. You must re-apply every school year, ideally at least two months before classes. Quebec, the Northwest Territories and Nunavut run their own programs without Canada Student Loans. Rules, fees and programs change and were read on 2026-11-14: confirm with the official source. General information, not legal advice. Quebec follows its own rules: see atlasquebec.ca.
