For All Manitoba Students

Manitoba Student Loans and Canada Student Loans are interest-free and payment-free while you are in full-time studies. For Canada Student Loans, interest begins to accumulate once you cease to be a full-time student, and the first payment is due six months after your end-of-study date.

The interest-free and payment-free period for Manitoba Student Loans is twelve months from your end-of-study date. To be eligible, you must be a resident of Manitoba on the eligibility date and confirm residency with your lender. The eligibility date is the first day of the seventh month after your end-of-study date.
