Oh well shit you guys

It turns out snow actually exists

morning 🌞

Go back to sleep, it's way too cold

Europe stole our snow

How dare you Fire

What do you mean

Austria has had a crisis because of snow for weeks

ehh, its not that cold. if it was cold there would be icicles in my hair

im good

the snow was just vacationing over near you for a bit spooky

I hope it brings Fire back with it next time

Hmm

Same

If you do show up fire, bring some wooden clogs with you, eh?

Now that's just offensive

I'll bring hagelslag and stroopwafels though

I wouldn't say no to tulips either

And some hutspot for the cold

but we'll have you for the cold 😉

Only a select few of you

See Pika, that's some guy making a joke

But this next one, is 100% serious

UWaterloo is a special kind of place

yep

I love it

Also don't worry spooky, I am effectively down to 1 assignment for the time being Kappa

Finished everything else early

So the people at my school are really mad right now

lower free money, no longer a 6 month grace period before your school loan starts gathering interest, but an overall 10% tuiton cut

not sure that 10% cut covers the 6 months of extra interest

It probably does not because you get less free money that you do not have to pay back, which has been shifted to a loan

so more money to be charged interest on

not a problem for me since I was just going to pay back my school loan right away anyways

Depends how much you borrow

It should fuck the real whores

you do not get to choose how much you borrow

???

it is calculated based on income bracket and tuiton costs, so if you apply for a student loan you get what you get

Pika, you don't have to take all of it though

That's the point

That's how loans work

You "qualify" for up to X amount

no, so in order to do that, technically with how our system is set up, you have to take the full loan, then immediately pay back what you don't want

or you can opt to get no loan and just the free money, which was at like 30%, but now is going to be less

so they give you less leeway so it's harder to get by without taking the loan so they can trap more people in a lifetime of student loan debt hell

how expensive is the typical us school for someone from the US

per term

Pika, I really think you're wrong on the loan thing, that just make no sense

But I don't know enough

I have never once seen an option to select to be payed less

maybe you can if you like, send the ontario government agency responsible for this a letter

idk

That's how you would do it in America, kind of

All of this is through a website, I can go check to see if there is an option I am missing

It doesn't really matter

I could understand your stipend being a set amount

But not the loan

both are set here

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I like how people actually go to reddit with problems

Like

Why

Might as well go to yahoo answers

okay, then the system to do that is not plainly obvious and as I said, you need to send them a letter for that

That's fine

My mistake

I accept that it's non-obvious and probably discouraged
