Money Tools: Not everyone has learned how to budget, make credit decisions, or make a long-term financial plan, but there is help! “Feed the Pig” is an organization dedicated to providing free tools to help us increase our piggy bank (savings) – see more at: http://www.feedthepig.org/ This is especially helpful if you are a college student, or have plans to buy/rent a home or car, or have some credit problems/no credit history, or dream of retiring but aren’t sure how to afford it.
Many schools are making it easier for Veterans to navigate their websites and prepare for applying to the university and for their educational benefits. Here are a few examples of ‘Veteran-friendly landing pages’ at NAU (http://nau.edu/Military-Veteran-Education/), ASU (https://veterans.asu.edu/), ODU (http://odu.edu/military/students/veterans-services), and Yavapai College (www.yc.edu/veterans) Not sure how to get started? The Veterans Upward Bound program can help you learn the ropes so you can start college confidently! Contact us at www.yc.edu/vub or 928-717-7686.
