Don’t wait until before you graduate to think about how your loan payments will affect you. Calculate yours now: http://t.co/iOCJ4GWvEV

Before taking out a loan, find starting salaries in your field to get an idea of how much you are likely to earn after you graduate. #finlit

Scholarships, grants, student jobs, and loans aren’t given only to freshmen. Keep applying for financial aid all the way through college!

Get your financial life organized. Create a filing system for financial and important documents to always know due dates & meet deadlines.

[UMSL Cashiers Office @UMSLCashiers]

Talk to your parents. College is likely the time that most parents believe the financial responsibilities should shift toward the student.

A dollar's a dollar, regardless of where it comes from. It's important to treat extra cash as help for meeting your financial goals. #FinLit

[UMSL Cashiers Office @UMSLCashiers]

Try paying w/ cash more. We spend 12% to 18% more when using cards instead of cash. It's harder to pay with bills than a credit card swipe.

Whether it's morning coffee or lunch out, small costs add up. Even if you're within your means, it never hurts to not spend money every day.

[UMSL Cashiers Office @UMSLCashiers]

If you have a good payment history, contact your service providers (cable/phone/etc) and see if there are any discounts or deals available.

Common budget mistakes: Make sure to not use gross earnings for income. Use your net income, since this is what you can spend. #FinLitMonth

When searching for scholarships, look for ones based on general characteristics, such as for women, the blind, or a particular major.
