19 Budgeting Basics Kris Henderson Associate Dean for Student Services and Administration
20 Understanding Your Financial Needs and Goals Identify your goals and write them down. Develop a monthly in-school budget you can afford and follow. COA is a guide and tells you how much you can borrow. It does not necessarily represent YOUR budget. Look for ways to reduce your spending. Save what you can each month for emergencies. Limit the number of credit cards you have and your total available credit. Borrow wisely. Borrow the minimum amount you need to achieve your goals and repay all that you borrow. Keep accurate, well-organized records of your financial activities. Protect your financial reputation. Accessgroup.org
21
22 Planning your budget Plan your budget Helpful tip: Open a savings account and deposit scholarship/loan money. Transfer funds each month to checking account based on your budget. Scholarships/loans cover 9 months. Try to save some funds for summer to supplement your stipend or paycheck. Track your expenses can t set it and forget it Avoid spending traps and use of credit cards Review and revise as circumstances change Accessgroup.org
