Ultimate Money Skills Program on Tuesday, Oct. 28

Elon University Career Services will host “Ultimate Money Skills: Scholars, Dollars, Budgets & Bills,” a free financial success presentation for college students, on Tuesday, Oct. 28 from 4:30 – 5:30 pm.  The presentation will be held in the Koury Business Center, Room 101.  All students are encouraged to attend.

The program emphasizes the importance of how the choices students make about money while in college can have a direct impact on their future financial success.  “According to the Consumer Federation of America, 78 percent of college undergraduates have at least one credit card, which makes it all the more important for students to understand how to spend responsibly within a budget,” said JR Cifani, vice president for Making It Count.  “Knowing undergraduates are busier than ever with academics, internships and extra-curricular activities, we developed a succinct, yet informative, program to help them make smart financial decisions.”

The program is being presented in conjunction with Bank of America, one of the world’s largest financial institutions serving individual consumers, small and middle market businesses and large corporations with a full range of banking, investing, asset management and other financial and risk management products and services.
