Master BC Student Loan agreement = Canada Student Loan agreement ?

[tgill]

Last month I received a notification of assessment stating I had been approved for both BC & Canada student loan for the upcoming summer term, along with a Master BC Student Loan agreement.

I completed the Master BC Student Loan agreement and took it to canada post, however upon further reading of the StudentAid BC website the wording makes it sound like I should have also received a Canada Student Loan agreement.

Is the Master BC Student Loan agreement the same thing as the Canada Student Loan agreement?

I think the Master BC Student Loan Agreement and the Canada Student Loan Agreement are different. I'm not quite sure though. For myself I have the National Student Loans and the BC Student Loans.

It seems that your Master BC Student Loan agreement is for loans from that bureau. But like I said earlier, I'm not entirely sure so hopefully someone here can clarify.

Thats what I was thinking, I just wonder why the I never got the Canada Student Loan Agreement. forms

I guess I'll call up the Nation Student Loans Centre first thing in the morning.

if you already went to the post office your money should be wired to your accounted in a few weeks

IIRC it's the agreement for both provincial + federal loan

So I made a few calls, and coincidently StudentAid BC told me that they just received confirmation of enrollment from my school today, which means that they will be mailing to me a Canada Student Loan agreement for me to complete and send back east.

Apparently the CSL requires absolute verification of course load from your school, so if you are wait-listed expect for the CSL portion to be delayed. For future reference, until you receive a Canada Student Agreement, the National Student Loan Service Centre will know nothing about you.
