Money Matters
Make a Plan
Paying for education is an important consideration for every student. University costs include tuition and fees, textbooks, accommodation, transportation, food, clothing, and spending money. At a time when income is often minimal, it鈥檚 valuable for students to start developing responsible money habits.
As family and friends, it is an important time to work with your student to establish and collaborate on a budget. Listing all university related expenses, as well as income sources, can help students plan out the best way to use their money. Students pay for their education in a variety of ways including individual savings, scholarships and awards, working while studying, external funding sources, family contributions (if applicable), and student loans.
