Consultation launched on student loans integration
NEW The Manitoba government is launching a 45-day consultation on proposed changes to the Student Aid Regulation that would support the alignment of provincial and federal loan programs.
The proposed amendments will harmonize provisions of the Student Aid Regulation with the requirements of the Canada Student Financial Assistance Program, to make it easier for students to manage their student loans.
Manitoba Student Aid stakeholders, students, borrowers, and the general public are welcome to participate in the consultation process by visiting reg.gov.mb.ca/home. Comments are invited through end of day June 13, 2022.
