StudentAid BC applications for the 2025/2026 program year for classes starting between August 1, 2025 and July 31, 2026 are now available.
Due to a labour dispute, the Ministry of Post-Secondary Education and Future Skills is currently experiencing a disruption in service delivery. As a result, access to the StudentAid BC online application systems is not available at this time.
It is unknown when normal response times will resume.
If you remain in studies but do not have a current loan and are about to enter repayment, you can apply for in-study payment free status through NSLSC. To do so, for students in Canada, log in to your secure NSLSC account and select “Confirmation of Enrolment" under the "Managing Your Loan" tab on the Dashboard. For students outside Canada, please complete and submit this form to NSLSC (instructions provided on form).
For general inquiries please call our StudentAid BC call center at 1-800-561-1818.
