Hi everyone!

I have been offered a yearlong fellowship at a very great program. Since I'll be taking a leave of absence, I don't know if I'll receive malpractice coverage. I won't be meeting with the dean for another two weeks so I'm pretty anxious to know if there are any alternatives out there just in case. In the case that I don't get malpractice insurance or have to pay a years worth of tuition - does anyone know of any better/cheaper alternatives? I don't want to have to pick between paying a years worth of tuition to do research versus not.

Thanks!
