An online, 1 hour financial literacy course is now available for Boise State students!
Financial literacy for college students has never been more important than it is today. A college education often provides individuals with the skills and knowledge that are necessary to "live the American Dream." Yet, many college students significantly delay their American dream decisions to get married, purchase a home, or to start a family because of high debt accumulated during their years in college.
1 in 3 students graduate with more than $10,000 in credit card debt!
More employers are checking credit scores before hiring a new employee!
There is little students can do about the fixed costs of student fees and textbooks. There DEFINITELY is something you can do about all of your other expenses and finances.
Financial aid for your next semester will disburse only after your certificate of completion has been submitted to the Financial Aid Office. All other eligibility requirements for financial aid still apply.
