First Priority Credit Union

Some of the most important you can do at college won’t take place in the classroom. You’ll learn how to manage your money! You’ll need to create a budget, being sure that essential bills are covered before you get to your “fun” money, and minimize expenses by doing things like eating in as much as you can. Keep your student loan debt down as much as possible, and work on building your credit by doing things like becoming an authorized user on a family member’s credit card. Also, take advantage of campus resources like financial literacy workshops. You’ll be a financial wizard before you finish your first accounting class!
