Ontario students forced to choose between crippling debt or abandoning education due to OSAP funding cuts

Ontario students face an impossible choice after OSAP policy changes eliminated grants and shifted aid entirely to loans, forcing them to either accumulate massive debt burdens or drop out of post-secondary education. Current financial aid solutions fail because they've become loan-dependent rather than grant-based, leaving low-income and middle-income students without viable pathways to afford education without life-altering debt.
