Can Americans Get Student Grants or Student Aid in Canada?

I’m American, wanting to go to college in Canada so that I can be closer to my boyfriend.

Will I be able to get a grand or student aid in Canada since I’m American? I’ve also heard that if I applied for a United States Government grant that I could use it at a Canadian school. Is this true?

    As an American you are not eligible for loans or grants through Canadian financial aid opportunities. You have to apply for financial aid from your own country. The amount you are eligible for will depend on a variety of factors.

    While you cannot get Canadian student aid, you can indeed get US government aid for most Canadian schools. J
