12 Jan '11

This message is sent on behalf of Human Resources and Skills Development Canada.... Description: clip_image002 REPAYING YOUR STUDENT LOAN(S) Are you graduating or leaving school?

The Agreement sets the terms for the repayment of your Canada Student Loan; this is the federal portion of your loan. You'll have to make a number of decisions, including the type of interest rate and how long you'll take to repay your loan. Depending on your situation, you might also receive another Consolidation Agreement by mail for your provincial or territorial student loan. You don't have to make any payments on your student loan(s) for the first six months after you leave school; however, interest will be added to your Canada Student Loan during these six months. Helping you repay your loan Missing payments can have serious and long-term consequences. Contact the NSLSC before you miss a payment. The federal government can provide you with a number of options, such as the Repayment Assistance Plan (RAP).

Problems with Aurora PINs
by all-students＠lists.umanitoba.ca 24 Nov '10

24 Nov '10

As indicated previously, all users of Aurora Self Service are required to set up new Security Questions and Answers on your next log in to Aurora. The PIN used prior to the upgrade is the same one as you used prior to the upgrade and if entered correctly will work. Several staff and students have reported problems with their Aurora PIN not working. Based on information from these users it is evident that some of the PINs being entered are more than six digits. What we have learned is that, although prior to the upgrade the PIN limitation was six digits, some users believed they had created PINs with more than six digits. If a user typed in more than six digits prior to the upgrade, the system only used the first six entered. So, a user may have thought they were entering an eight digit PIN, for example, when in fact the Aurora system only stored and used the first six digits. The post-upgrade PIN limit is now a combination of 10 digits and characters. So now if a user types in an eight digit PIN there will be a PIN mismatch as the PIN stored in the system was only six digits. If you thought your PIN was greater than six digits prior to the upgrade last weekend, please be sure to type in only the first six digits. After your first log in you can change the PIN to a combination of 6 to 10 digits and characters. If you choose to create a new PIN, please remember the PIN must include a least one number and if you choose to include letters that these are case sensitive. Please report PIN problems to our student help line 474-9420. Registrar's Office Student Affairs...Creating Opportunities for Student Success
