FOR FALL 2013 FRESHMAN

Going off to college can be very exciting and scary all at the same time.  For the first time you are getting to act like and be responsible for yourself as an adult.  No longer are you a child!

I am going to post an article by John Ulzheimer, a credit expert and senior columnist at Credit Card Insider, an educational resource about credit.

My advice to all of my students is to do what feels comfortable and right for you.  Check out this article!
