Dr. Hanson will also meet individually with our students (and their partners) in private counseling appointments (40 minutes), October 12, 13 & 14(M, Tue, W).

These appointments should reduce the stress associated with borrowing by equipping students with a financial action plan.

These appointments are extremely popular with medical and law students across the country.

Appointments are available to our students free of charge and are made on a first come, first serve basis. See attached flyerfor details or book appointments here. The schedule fills very quickly and there is no wait list, so if you’re interested please book as soon as possible.
