Hello,

I was wondering if I decide to declare bankruptcy (on unsecured line of credit due to extreme health circumstances). I recently returned to back to school after a many years off due to my health. However I received 4.0 GPA last semester and really want to continue on with school but I need financial assistance. At the same time, the unsecured debt that I accumulated while before getting ill is haunting me for few years and I feel as if its best to declare bankruptcy on that portion.

Would I still be eligible for further OSAP assistance if I file for bankruptcy?

The OSAP questionnaire specifically asks you if you have ever declared bankruptcy. I believe they have something called a "Credit Appeal" that will allow you to dispute them automatically rejecting you, however.

Thank you Radagast for your advice.
