Where do I apply?
| You apply through the school where you are registered in the most credits/units for the term you are applying for. This is considered your home school. If you are registered in the same number of credits/units at each school, your home school will be the school where you have completed the most credits/units to date. |
How do I apply?
You apply online at: StudentAidBC.ca If you are applying through SFU, select Bachelor of Arts, as your program. If you are applying through Douglas College, select Associate of Arts, as your program. |
How do I receive my funds?
You must complete a Split Enrollment form and submit it to your home school after your non-home school has completed their section of the form. Your home school will use the information on this form to confirm your full-time enrollment with StudentAid BC and have your student loan funding released to you. |
What if I have questions about my loan or need to change information?
| Contact your home school. |

Who provides the educational costs to my province or territory?
If your province or territory requires a Program Information Form (PIF) to be completed by SFU Financial Aid and Awards, please provide us with the following details by email (fiassist@sfu.ca) in order to complete your PIF as accurately as possible:
Which terms are you applying for funding for? (Fall, Fall/Spring, Spring, or Summer). SFU will adjust undergraduate student financial assistance applications submitted for the full academic year to a maximum of two terms. Students that want funding for the Summer term must submit a stand alone application for May - August.
What is your intended course load each term in units: Undergraduate students must be enrolled in at least 60% of a full-time course load (minimum of 9 units or enrolled in a co-operative learning term) each term you require full-time student financial assistance. If you have a recognized permanent disability, your full-time enrollment requirement is 40% (6 units).
Do you have a recognized permanent disability through your provincial or territorial student aid office?
Where do I pick up documents or have my documents signed?
Your home school may have your documents available for pickup. Please note that some provinces request Confirmation of Enrollment electronically. If your province mails your documents directly to your address, you must bring the documents to your home school for confirmation of enrollment. Complete a Split Enrollment form |
