bearhunter Posted May 6, 2011 Share Posted May 6, 2011 I think calling is also a bad idea. Besides, it is probable you would spend the majority of the call on hold only to get a very vague response. So in the end you will probably only waste your own time and exacerbate your own frustration. The phone number of the OGS office is: 807-343-7257 Everybody is requested to call them if the results not issued FRIDAY bearhunter 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bearhunter Posted May 6, 2011 Share Posted May 6, 2011 I can get to the OSAP website but when I try to get into the login section it does not bring up the next page. This is either because of volume or perhaps because they are doing some updations as we speak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimmydalock Posted May 6, 2011 Share Posted May 6, 2011 The website is also for OSAP users (so possibly they changed something there). Also it's possible we all just got trigger happy on checking out OGS results that we shut down part of the server backend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hhw Posted May 6, 2011 Share Posted May 6, 2011 (no status change for me, either) Folks who want to express dissatisfaction with the decision timeline and notification process might consider contacting OSAP or the TCU ministry level -- that's where staffing decisions are likely to be made (I don't have inside info for OGS specifically, just experience working in other academic bureaucracies): Student Financial Assistance Branch Ontario Student Assistance Program (OSAP) PO Box 4500 189 Red River Road, 4th Floor Thunder Bay, ON P7B 6G9 Telephone: (807) 343-7260 Toll-free in North America: 1-877-OSAP-411 (1-877-672-7411) Telephone Device for the Deaf (TDD): 1-800-465-3958 Fax: (807) 343-7278 https://www.ontario.ca/en/contacts/feedback/index.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UofGuelph Posted May 6, 2011 Share Posted May 6, 2011 Logged in, click OGS and I get the following: The online application is temporarily unavailable as it is currently being updated. We apologize for the inconvenience and thank you for your patience. Please check back later. We'll see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Epi_Girl Posted May 6, 2011 Share Posted May 6, 2011 I just logged into the site to check results, and it says the site is unavailable because it is being UPDATED! Yay, maybe we'll see something soon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Queen's11 Posted May 6, 2011 Share Posted May 6, 2011 Likewise - from compulsive checking in days past I have come to the conclusion that the system often updates at 2 PM EST....although, given that it has not updated since the 24th I am not holding my breath.

electrochoc Posted May 6, 2011 Share Posted May 6, 2011 Then it's down now.. hopefully that wasn't a mess up. Hopefully not. That would be a horrible way to tease applicants like this. I tried logging in too and got the same reply about the update. Fingers crossed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This happened to me last year: mine was updated to say I was successful, but they took it down until all of the applicants were given results. So, Congratulations on getting an OGS! Crossing my fingers now, for funding in the last year I qualify for OGS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
