Financial Aid News & Updates

Impact of Alternative Grading System on OSAP
It is recognized that dropping or withdrawing from course(s) may be necessary to avoid academic standing issues. If you are receiving student financial aid, dropping or withdrawing from course(s) could have both immediate, and future financial implications. Prior to dropping or withdrawing from course(s), ensure you understand the impact to your financial aid eligibility and assessment. Contact the Student Awards and Financial Aid office for further details.

Impact of Alternative Grading System on Scholarship Renewal
For Renewable Scholarship eligibility, students must remain registered in a minimum 60% course load each semester for the 2020-21 academic year only, and maintain the minimum cumulative average required for their respective awards.
If you are considering either the Pass/No Pass or Voluntary Withdrawal (VWC) option as outlined in the recent email regarding the Alternative Grading System, you may wish to contact our office via email at award1@uwindsor.ca to discuss the possible impact on your scholarship renewal eligibility.

2021-2022 Prospective Students
If we have received a student's top 6 interim and final Grade 12 university preparation course grades, entrance scholarship offers were sent via email on May 19, 2021. Students receiving donor-sponsored funding that may have been substituted for an open entrance scholarship to which we may only have 3 Grade 12 U/M level grades on record may have received their offer as well on May 19, 2021. Once all 12O interim and final Grade 12 U/M level grades are received, entrance scholarship offers will be reviewed and communication at a later time.

If you are currently experiencing financial hardship, please email:

Domestic students, please email award1@uwindsor.ca.

International students, please email both award1@uwindsor.ca and isc@uwindsor.ca.
