Hey all, we're partnering with a cool new startup called Juno to try to make Law School more affordable. See below for a message from them.

----

If you’re planning to attend law school this fall and think you may need student loans, it may be worth joining the Juno Law School Loan Negotiation Group before May 1st.

Juno is a free platform that organizes students into large groups and negotiates with private lenders to secure lower interest rates. The idea is simple: when thousands of students come together, lenders compete to offer better terms.

Over the past 8 years, more than $1B in student loans have been negotiated through Juno, and thousands of graduate students, including law students, have used the platform to access discounted rates.

A few things to know:

• Joining is free and takes about a minute to complete

• There’s no obligation to take a loan

• Rates are negotiated after the group closes, and members can compare offers before deciding

• If Juno doesn’t beat the best rate you find elsewhere, they offer a Rate Match Program

Even if you’re still deciding how you’ll fund law school (federal loans, private loans, scholarships, etc.), joining the group simply gives you access to the negotiated rates once they’re finalized.

Join by May 1st to help negotiate the best rates possible!

Juno also has some great financial education resources for law students at https://joinjuno.com/resources/law including my favorite, the JD Budget and Loan Planner.
