Learning how to manage your money is one of the most important life skills—but it’s not always taught in the classroom. Adulting 101: Financial Skills for Life is designed to help college students and community members gain the knowledge and resources needed to make confident financial decisions.
Join us for an interactive afternoon featuring information tables, expert advice, and mini-workshops on essential financial topics. Learn practical strategies for budgeting, building credit, protecting yourself from scams, managing debt, and planning for major milestones like homeownership.
Local organizations and campus partners will be available to share resources, answer questions, and provide guidance on financial wellness and wealth-building strategies you can start using today. Whether you’re navigating college expenses, planning for the future, or simply looking to strengthen your financial knowledge, Adulting 101 will help you build the skills needed for long-term financial success.
