Here are a few of the Non-Academic Challenges students face when it comes to their finances:
Financial stress distracts from academics
Financial strain drives academic shortcuts
How students eat affects academic performance
Precarious finances trigger improvisation, not planning, lack of budgeting
Social networks augment resources and cushion financial crises, family to live with and support them
Public Benefits can bolster academics, but students rarely seek to use them
Students may budget, but unexpected costs often disrupt those plans
Summer reduces financial predictability and can derail academic progression, income varies
What students don’t know about financial aid can impede academic success. Not SAP-ping a course can cause them to lose their aid.
Cost concerns and debt aversion plus uncertain plans impact college choice.
"Students who said they speak at least once or twice a month with their parents about money matters have better financial literacy scores than those who said they hardly or never speak with their parents."
