Hello all,
I have been in discussions with UM's Student Enrolment office, which is the office that liases with Manitoba Student Aid. The issue that BMid students are being assessed at an 80% full time equivalent, when applying for loans, is being worked through. I am aware the loan application for spring/summer term opened last week and have been advised you will very likely be assessed at 100%. I will confirm this soon.
I expect to have more information about this towards the end of this week. Thanks for your patience, and my sincere apologies this has been an ongoing issue.

The University of Manitoba campuses are located on original lands of Anishinaabeg, Ininiwak, Anisininewuk, Dakota Oyate and Dene, and on the National Homeland of the Red River Métis. I respect the Treaties that were made on these territories, I acknowledge the harms and mistakes of the past, and I dedicate myself to move forward in partnership with Indigenous communities in a spirit of Reconciliation and collaboration.
Thanks for the update!
Will this change be done in time for us to be reassessed for our government students loans as well as the UM General Bursary/Scholarships?
Are there any plans for compensation considering that we've been under-assessed and therefore received inadequate funding due to this clerical error which was brought to the attention of the university over a year ago?
Appreciate your time!
Nicole Martin
