- Scenarios: Evaluating and managing costs is critical for debt reduction. Use the Scenarios Guide to learn about the financial implications of different decisions students make, including balancing coursework and paid work, using meal plans, and studying abroad.
- Money-saving tips: A list of ten money saving tips specifically for college students!
- Additional resources: There are dozens of books, web resources, and campus contacts to help manage personal finances and students debt.
