The Canada Student Loans Program


Written on 07/28/2010 – 1:23 pm | by loanle08

The Government of Canada offers Canada Student Loans to full- and part-time post-secondary students who demonstrate financial need in most provinces and territories across Canada.

Through the Canada Student Loans Program (CSLP) the Government of Canada works in partnership with most provinces and territories to deliver student financial assistance. The Government of Canada provides 60 percent of the assessed need, up to a maximum of $210 in loans per week of study. The remaining 40 percent may be provided in the form of provincial or territorial student loans.

An estimated 4.3 million students have received almost $32 billion in Canada Student Loans since the CSLP was created in 1964. In 2009-2010, the CSLP provided over $3 billion in full- and part-time student loans to approximately 440,000 students and awarded $141.8 million in non-repayable Canada Study Grants and Canada Access Grants (87,368 grants).

    Hi,
    I visited your site: http://www.loan-lenders.org and I must say that your site has got really good and worthy information. While reading your articles I found them to be really good and informative. I am a regular visitor of your site and I have been reading them since quite a long time. I work as a content writer in many financial communities and so I was just wondering if I can do something for your wonderful site. I would like to give you an unique article of around 500 words on any of the topics like FOREX, Stocks, debt, mortgage, credit, insurance etc. I assure you that the article will be published only on your site.

    The best part is I won’t be charging you a penny, but in return all I need is just one link within the article. I am also associated with few finance sites also which I keep on updating on the regular basis.

    I would be really honored if I can do something for your site :)

    Please feel free to get in touch with me regarding this anytime you want.

    Looking forward for your positive reply.

    Thanks,
    Nicole James
