Hello,

Thank you for sharing your situation and question with us.

We can appreciate that you would be interested in this type of information.

You can find some helpful information in our Settlement.Org I am a refugee claimant. Can I study? article.

Here is an excerpt,

In most cases, refugee claimants will have to pay international fees until they have been designated as a refugee or protected person; you should check with your school for their rules. You may be eligible for certain scholarships and grants, but the Ontario Student Assistance Program (OSAP) is limited to Canadian Citizens, Permanent Residents and designated refugees and protected persons.

You may be able to find some helpful information regarding financial assistance in our Settlement.Org I am an international (foreign) student. Can I get financial assistance? article.

I hope this information is helpful. Please let us know if you have further questions and if there is any follow up to your question/situation.
