Heading to college is an exciting chapter for recent graduates. For many, it is their first being away from home, meeting new people, and branching off into young adulthood. While beginning college is one of the biggest milestones in a young adult’s life, learning to manage money is an important component in setting students up for financial freedom following graduation.

In an effort to help students form good financial habits early, Bayou Pearls, will host a money management seminar geared towards incoming freshmen and current students. The seminar will provide insightful information to those preparing for college and helpful financial guidance for students to use throughout their collegiate journey and into adulthood.


The seminar will cover the following topics:

  • How to protect your credit score
  • What you need to know about credit cards
  • What you need to know about Student Loans
  • Great HBCU tips

The seminar will be held on Saturday, June 11, at 9:30 a.m., via zoom.
