- If you are eligible for a refund due to a credit balance on your account, you will see a blue bar on your ACORN dashboard with a direct link to the OSAP Refund Request Form.
- During peak time, processing may take more than 2 weeks due to the volume of requests.
- Enrolment Services will re-assess your OSAP application to determine whether some or all of the credit balance should be refunded to a U of T award/scholarship program (if applicable), refunded to the National Student Loans Service Centre to reduce your outstanding loans, and/or refunded to you.
