Science Girl talks about being poor on the radio: OSAP to the Rescue

A news release came out today on the Government of Ontario website stating Premier Dalton McGuinty‘s government’s official commitment to providing greater financial assistance to post-secondary students.  Some of the modifications to the Ontario Student Assistance Program (OSAP) include:

• Allowing students to keep more of the money they earn from part-time jobs
• Providing a no-interest period on student loans for six months after graduation
• Introducing 1,000 new graduate scholarships

Neil Adams from 570 News was on-campus this afternoon, speaking with students at the University of Waterloo about these recent changes to OSAP.

Listen to me and FEDS president Justin Williams talk to Neil: version 1 and version 2.

Now, what would I do with more money?

Eat more salad, of course.
