on the FAFSA website I saw that repayment begins once you drop below half time. for JDi students, are we taking enough credits per semester to be over half time by FAFSA standards?

Hi Natasha - as long as you stay above 6 credits in fall and spring and 4 credits in the summer, you will be taking enough credits to qualify!

where do we find the application for the GRAD Plus? I’ve already done the MPN for both but do not remember applying for GRAD Plus loans separately..

Hi Natasha, The PLUS Loan Application page is here: https://studentaid.gov/plus-app/grad/landing

Are there any student health insurance programs that JDi students can qualify for ?

Where do I apply for work study?

Are JDi students who are continuing with their health insurance outside the program eligible to submit those expenses as cost of attendance adjustments?

How do you upload your health insurance?

What exactly are 529s allowed to cover, especially for JDi students? Does that include costs for residencies, even if just as a reimbursement?

Hi Shekinah - if you go to the admitted student website and go to Health Insurance Requirement, it will take you to the Student Health Insurance website which contains instructions on how to enroll or waive. Health insurance is only required for full-time residential students.

Hi Inge - I'm going to send this message to Kristin Shea, Director of Financial Aid. I know it covers most costs but I can't quite remember exactly what!

Regarding loans, is interest accrued while we are still in school? If yes, is it simple or compound interest?

In MySlice, the screen titled, "Estimated Financial Aid Budget Breakdown," which of these are paid via MySlice, eg. Books, Fees,?

When are the Accept and Decline amounts due in MySlice Finaid? Before or after the bills from the Bursar?
