Take the Credit Union with you to College!

Hey, new college student!

Got everything you need? Clothes, stuff for the dorm, books? How about a financial institution? If you don’t already have one, add ‘open a checking account’ to your list.

Why?
A checking account with debit card allows you to pay for expenses, make purchases in stores or online, and withdraw money from an ATM. And, when you receive student funding or a paycheck you’ll be able to opt for direct deposit. You’ll be able to link your debit card to your smartphone to make super-easy and safe mobile transactions.

Where?

Do your homework! Thought you were getting a break from that, huh? It’s important that you feel comfortable with the financial institution you choose.

  • Ask your parents and friends for recommendations
  • Check out the financial institution’s social media and website
  •  Read reviews
