Financial Literacy

"Finances are one of the most common barriers to enrolling and remaining in higher education.  With improved financial literacy, students and families will better understand the positive impact that higher education can have on their financial future.  They'll also have a better understanding of the tools and resources available to create a financial plan to get to college and stay in college."

Education Cents, through Colorado Department of Education's College Invest, offers an interactive website with a self-paced curriculum on financial literacy to help students and families make sound and informed financial decisions.

In addition, Education Cents offers a rewards program to registered users as an incentive to learn more about personal finances and the rewards of a higher education.
