I'm wondering if any of the Canadian colleges using Populi have been able to make sure of the Financial Aid component. We've been looking at it, but it seems to be so "American" that I'm not sure how it would be feasible. Has anyone had success with this? Have any pointers so we don't have to "reinvent the wheel"?
Thanks, eh? :)

I am looking into this as well!
I would be willing to help develop this feature! There are 3 schools, in Ontario that I am aware of that have students that receive OSAP funding.
Hi Kirsha, Did you ever figure out how to use Populi for Canadian Financial Aid? We had let this idea go when I was looking at it a few years ago. Now they'd like to take another look at it to see if we can't figure it out. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Donna, We use the financial aid section to enter college scholarships and bursaries. Our I.T. manager made a separate add on to populi, that pulls information from populi and student's accounts (I use tags). I use the add on to track information with each students etc. It is not fully completed, but is usable.
Sorry I can't help you out.
