Once you've finished your studies, it will be time to repay your OSAP loans. The amount that you will have to pay back each month will depend on the following:
Your total repayable loan debt - This is the total amount of OSAP student loans you receive during your program after any Ontario Student Opportunity Grants have been applied against this amount
The interest rate - is the amount you have to pay to borrow money. On the federal portion of your OSAP student loans the interest rate can be as low as the prime rate of interest plus 2.5 per cent. On the provincial portion, the rate is the prime rate of interest plus 1 per cent.
Your loan repayment period - The usual repayment period is 9.5 year. You can repay your OSAP student loans as quickly as you like or take up to 15 years to repay them. The faster you repay, the higher your monthly loan payments, but the lower your total interest payments will be.
