STUDENT CREDIT UNIONS

Our Student Credit Union program is a great way for students to increase their financial literacy, and gain valuable work experience. Our program allows for students to run an actual credit union location in their school, which provides a convenient banking location for both students and staff, all while students gain a wide range of experience. It also provides a convenient location for both students and staff to make deposits into their Honor Credit Union account.
