Emergency loan application (webform)
Apply for a graduate student emergency loan.
The University of Waterloo Emergency Loan Program is an interest-free emergency loan that is available to assist students with expenses (such as rent, groceries etc.) while awaiting another source of income. Emergency loans may not be used to cover tuition and fees.
Please arrange to have proof of your source of repayment ready to upload to your application prior to submission as the application cannot be saved partially complete. For example: funding letter from department, Notice of Award (external awards), screen shot from approved OSAP/other provincial aid application showing your funding, employment letter, paystub.
An incomplete submission will result in the delay of application processing.

The University of Waterloo acknowledges that much of our work takes place on the traditional territory of the Neutral, Anishinaabeg and Haudenosaunee peoples. Our main campus is situated on the Haldimand Tract, the land granted to the Six Nations that includes six miles on each side of the Grand River. Our active work toward reconciliation takes place across our campuses through research, learning, teaching, and community building, and is co-ordinated within the Office of Indigenous Relations.
