Financial Literacy 101
  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 graduates significantly delay 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 graduated with more than $10,000 in credit card debt!

More employers are checking credits 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.
