Financial stress is one of the top three reasons students don't succeed at college. Giving them financial aid is not enough. To make matters more challenging, campus administrators are under increasing pressure to address students' lack of understanding of personal finances. Learn best practices for providing practical financial education for students that will make a positive impact on their lives and make it a win-win for students and the institution. This informative, fastpaced session will demonstrate how delivering practical money management skills will help your students succeed financially throughout their lives. Two university administrators, one from the Financial Aid Office, one from the Department of Finance, will reveal how they successfully teach thousands of students a year personal finance skills. Participants will learn why it's important for college students to have good financial skills, how to choose the right target audience when implementing a program, and ways to maximize success and avoid pitfalls. Information about how to identify and choose the best resources for implementation and support will also be discussed.
