Financial Literacy
The Financial Aid Office is committed to empowering students to make financially informed decisions towards attaining their educational goals and establishing financial wellness. Financial literacy refers to one's ability to understand and responsibly manage their finances, enabling them to build a stable foundation for their future. Developing financial literacy to improve your personal finances involves learning and practicing a variety of skills related to budgeting, managing debt, understanding credit, and banking products. Our financial aid office has developed a series of programming highlighting the fundamentals of financial literacy to help students further their understanding of and achieve financial success.
