8 big mistakes college students should avoid

  1. Bad Money Management Habits

College is a huge investment; students are responsible for paying tuition, books, and housing. However, many other expenses will incur along the way, from registration fees to lab fees to gas to cell phone bills.
“Setting up a budget is crucial, particularly if your spending money is drawn from a loan or grant,” says John Rasmussen, head of Education Financial Services at Wells Fargo. “You’ll need that money to last if you don’t have another stream of revenue.”
Refrain form bad financial habits now, as do so many college students.  Take advantage of free resources, to learn more about banking, building good credit and paying for college.
