How it worked
Join Juno
Sign up at joinjuno.com — it takes 2 minutes and there's no credit impact.
You were automatically considered
Every incoming NYU College of Dentistry student (Class of 2030) who joined Juno before June 30th, 2026 was automatically considered for one of four $1,000 scholarships. No application, no essay, no additional steps.
Winners are notified
Four recipients are selected the week of July 6th and each receives $1,000 disbursed directly to them.
More than a scholarship
Dental school is one of the biggest financial commitments you'll make. Juno exists to make sure you're not paying more than you have to — through negotiated private loan rates, a rate match guarantee, and now, a scholarship program built specifically for the incoming NYU dental Class of 2030.
What dental students get with Juno
Expanded Eligibility
In 2025, over 80% (1,200+) of graduate Juno members with no current income and no cosigner qualified for at least one private loan option through Juno. If you do have access to a creditworthy cosigner, adding one may still reduce your interest rate.
Automatic Residency Deferment
Automatic residency deferment with a healthcare-focused lender is offered in our marketplace to provide $25 per month loan payments during residency and automated residency deferment options for specific programs.1
Exclusive rate discounts
Join free to access exclusive rate discounts that save you more money than going to our lending partner directly. For the median member, we expect rates will be ~1.5% lower.2
How does this compare to federal loans?
Dental students should weigh a few key factors when comparing federal and private loans. Federal loans include borrower protections such as income-driven repayment plans like the Repayment Assistance Plan (RAP), and borrowers may be eligible for Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF) if they work full-time at a qualifying nonprofit or government employer and meet all program requirements.
Note: For students beginning dental programs after July 1, 2026, Grad PLUS loans will no longer be available, and Federal Direct Unsubsidized loans will be capped at $50,000 per year. Read more here
