1. Subject to credit approval by National Bank. As an example, an offer holder can potentially save up to $642 per year. This figure is based on the typical profile of an offer holder who has the following: a banking program equivalent to ™The Total program (™The Total is available for a monthly cost of $16 to full-time postsecondary students age 18 to 24; other banking packages and programs are also available) and a bank-authorized Student Line of Credit with guarantor with a current annual balance of $30,000. 

The savings were calculated as follows: no monthly transaction fees included in ™The Total package (annual savings of $192), plus an annual 1.50% discount on the Student Line of Credit rate (annual savings of $450). These discounts represent the difference between what a client who is not an offer holder might have and what an offer holder might have. Some eligibility requirements apply. These potential savings may not match your net savings, as they vary according to your financial situation. 

2. Subject to credit approval by National Bank of Canada. Certain conditions apply. Two years after the card is issued, the regular annual fee in effect will automatically be charged to the account. Offer cannot be renewed.

3. A chequing account. Some services such as the passbook and paper statement by mail are not included.

4. Subject to credit approval by National Bank. Certain conditions apply. A guarantor who satisfies National Bank's criteria may be required. The annual amount is based on your personal budget needs.

This grace period does not apply to cash advances or balance transfers. Minimum payment: If your account balance is lower than $10, you must pay the entire balance. If you reside in the province of Quebec, your minimum payment will correspond to 5% of the credit card account balance plus any overdue payment or $10, whichever amount is higher. If you reside outside of Quebec, your minimum payment represents 2.5% of the credit card account balance plus any overdue payment or $10, whichever amount is higher.

The regular rate for a line of credit is the prime rate* + 3%, which corresponds to 6.95% (2.45% + 3%) as at October 25, 2018. As the applicable rate is based on the prime rate, it may fluctuate over time. No management costs. Account statements are produced monthly. Interest accrues as soon as an amount is drawn on the line of credit. Students must start repaying the principal when they have a full-time job or within 12 months of the end of their studies.

*The prime rate means the annual variable interest rate posted by National Bank, from time to time, and used by the Bank to determine the interest rates on the demand loans it grants in Canadian dollars in Canada. Consult the prime rate webpage to find out today's rate.
