Education funding
Building a financial plan and budget starts with income. As a college student, you have little to no income. Our college financial planning technology allows you to include Federal and private loans, scholarships, grants, parent funding, spouse income, and more.
Expenses
Managing expenses as a college student is a big component of your financial plan. With FitBUX's technology, you can include items such as:
Cost of education (books and tuition)
Regular expenses such as rent and food
Debt payments (cars and credit cards) and contributions to investments if you have them
Insurance costs
Simulating
A good financial plan for college students looks to the future. It includes their school years and beyond.
That is exactly what FitBUX's technology does. You can even include life events post-graduation such as getting a masters degree, buying a home, and getting married.
You can also use the technology to simulate various student loan repayment strategies. You can see how they will impact your life post-graduation!
Private Loans
Need additional funding? College students often go with the most popular lender but they might not have the best rates.
Your FitBUX Expert is here to help you shop companies so you can pay as little as possible. They can also answer your questions about repayment!
