What Comets are Saying

Workshops

  • “I thought the group activity, comparing credit card offers, was helpful in showing me the different options available. The different options (student, secured, checking vs. savings) were presented well. I also didn’t know you could get free credit reports.”
  • “The game was extremely engaging and helped give me a better understanding of budgeting.”
  • “This was a really helpful workshop. UTD should definitely continue providing this training and keep helping students understand financial literacy.”

Smart About Money workshop series

  • “I really liked the activities in each workshop!”
  • “I really liked the activities we did. They were very thought-provoking, and I loved the level of individualization communicated.”

Individual appointments

  • “I was able to verify I am doing the right things.”
  • “I learned how to apply for a credit card and track my expenses.”
  • “Being able to talk to someone. Learning about certificates of deposit and financial budgeting.”
  • “It was nice that she was able to provide information. … I received an insight in future costs, which was very helpful.”
