💵 Financial Aid One-on-One Appointments for MS4s 💵

Each year, graduating MD students are asked about their experience with financial aid, billing, and debt counseling services as part of the LCME Graduate Questionnaire. We've heard that feedback, and we're acting on it: the WVU Hub is launching a new, more accessible way to connect with our office, so support is easier to find and use no matter where you are in the program.

We’re pleased to introduce the HSC Student Advocates. A team within the WVU Hub formed specifically to support MD program students with financial aid, billing, and student loan questions.

Starting Oct. 14, the HSC Student Advocates will be on-site at the Health Sciences Center every Wednesday, offering:

• One-on-one appointments, 10:00 AM–12:00 PM and 1:00–4:00 PM — financial aid questions, loan counseling, repayment strategy, and more

• A drop-in group session at noon — more info on that to follow

Fourth-year students: you're getting first access. Appointment sign-ups open to you starting Oct. 14 through Sign Up Genius (see below). If spots remain open, sign-ups will open to all MD students on Sep. 29.

This is an especially good year to have this conversation, with recent changes to federal student loan repayment options. The HSC Student Advocates can walk you through what's changed and what it means for you specifically.
