Mission Statement:

The purpose of the financial education and wellness program is to be one of the most recommended and highly regarded resources available to students. This program will be seamlessly integrated into the existing campus culture and will provide our students with the education and guidance needed to empower them to make confident decisions that are financial in nature.

Overview:

The University of Maryland, Baltimore is committed to the overall wellness of its students. Because of this commitment, the university has established the Department of Financial Education and Wellness (FEW) to help students establish and maintain financial wellness.  Whether your financial needs are simple or complex in nature, we are here for you.  The goal of this department is to provide students with the education and tools necessary to make effective financial decisions that can be used during the students’ time in school and beyond. This valuable resource is provided to students by the university at no charge. Chandra Carter, the new Director of Financial Education & Wellness (FEW), is here and ready to meet with students. The FEW Director’s office is located in the Office of Student Financial Assistance & Education located in the Health Services Library on the second floor.  

Although this is a new program, the FEW department is planning to have programs in the near future ranging in topics from “Budgeting 101” to “What You Should Look for in a Benefits Package” for students who will be graduating soon. Be sure to visit our website frequently as new information is added on a regular basis. If you have any questions or would like to schedule a confidential one-on-one  appointment with the Director of FEW, please send an e-mail to  mailto:RS-FinAid-Debt-Mgmt@campus.umaryland.edu.
