MM - Junior Year - Week 16 (Mar 13)

[Samuel Crystal]

Well... it's certainly nice weather outside of my window! Hope you're having a great week and looking forward to session this weekend!

What Students Need to Know:

We are focused on the Financial Aid Process on March 13. Before session please review the following articles and send your TL 2-3 questions by Friday morning. We will do our best to make sure all of the questions are covered in the presentation. 

• Higher Education Services Corporation: What is Financial Aid? (2 min read) &  College Net Price Calculator (2 min read)

• Questbridge: Financial Aid Overview (15 min read) & Financial Aid Glossary (10 min read)

 

We know this is a lot of information to digest. There is no expectation that you will be an expert after reading these articles, but that we can utilize these resources to find answers to our questions. Everyone’s situation is different, and next year we will work closely with their college advisors to unpack each of our individual situations. If you have questions about financial aid, please send Dan an email.

 

As a reminder - Dan and Eva have office hours on Wednesdays and Thursdays. Please feel free to jump in with any questions you have:

• Wednesdays (4-5pm): here

• Thursdays (4-5pm): here
