Why is Cornell's health insurance fee so small compared to other schools? it is only $350. Anyone know the actual amount students pay for health insurance?

That's just a medical fee that most schools have, health insurance is not included in their cost estimates.symphonyy wrote:Why is Cornell's health insurance fee so small compared to other schools? it is only $350. Anyone know the actual amount students pay for health insurance?

Thank you!
one more stupid question. Why are loan fees included? I thought law students dont pay interest rate during their 3 years of legal education

Re: Cornell c/o 2020 Applicants (2016-2017)
It's my understanding that those are administrative fees that you pay just to get the loans, like "handling" is included in shipping. The amount of the fees is included in your loan disbursement--you never receive that money (it's paid immediately), but you owe that amount as part of your loan.symphonyy wrote:Thank you!

Re: Cornell c/o 2020 Applicants (2016-2017)
AFAIK, because of the ObamaCare mandate, every student must sign up for their school's health insurance plan, unless they have equivalent coverage (under their parents' or spouse's plan). International students usually don't satisfy the equivalent coverage rule.symphonyy wrote:Do students generally sign up for this SHP thing?cantexplaingottago wrote:Definitely not only $350. http://studenthealthbenefits.cornell.ed ... /rates.cfmsymphonyy wrote:Why is Cornell's health insurance fee so small compared to other schools? it is only $350.

heads up: i was one of the first put on reserve, got invited to interview in person, did that as well, and just got an invite for the online interview. so that's 2 interviews total (no decision yet) and it seems like they're still reviewing the entirety of the reserve list.
Update: accepted today!

I was placed on reserve rather late, like in late late March. I am assuming they would eventually get to me - or I hope.chasima wrote:heads up: i was one of the first put on reserve, got invited to interview in person, did that as well, and just got an invite for the online interview. so that's 2 interviews total (no decision yet) and it seems like they're still reviewing the entirety of the reserve list.

If you get off the waitlist is it an email or a call?

When can I followup regarding a scholarship increase? I sent them my competing offers about two weeks ago at this point.

I would do it now. That's plenty of time, and with the first deposit deadline passed they may have more funds to allocate. Maybe call.ReadyToStart wrote:When can I followup regarding a scholarship increase? I sent them my competing offers about two weeks ago at this point.
