April is 💡

Here are some useful financial tips:
✔️ Create a budget and track your spending.
✔️ Save for emergencies (even small amounts add up over time!).
✔️ Be smart about borrowing money, understand interest, and use credit wisely.
✔️ Plan ahead for big expenses.

Financial literacy isn’t just about paying for college. It’s also about building habits that support your future. Start now, stay consistent, and don’t be afraid to ask for help along the way!

For students trying to make the best financial decision about college there a new resource that should make the process easier.

The Washington Post just launched a new database compiling nearly 1,000 free-tuition programs nationwide, supported by institutional commitments and state policy efforts. The resource spans 2-year colleges, 4-year institutions, and vocational pathways.

It can help college advisors, students, and families better understand options that reduce financial barriers to postsecondary education.
