Buttonwood

FINANCIAL LITERACY AND STUDENT LOAN EDUCATION

Student loans, debt, and credit card bills are not top of mind for most college students, yet the financial decisions they make today will have long-term effects on their lives. Poor financial awareness jeopardizes college completion and the quality of learning outcomes, and alumni satisfaction. In this economy, students nationwide are experiencing greater financial stress and need for preventive financial education.

Buttonwood is a turnkey way to empower students with the life skills to successfully manage their finances and loan responsibilities while in school and beyond, and to minimize dropout and student loan defaults through education. Buttonwood was developed in partnership with EverFi, whose flagship EverFi Financial Literacy Platform™ is already in more than 3000 high schools across the US. Buttonwood will be in over 60 higher education institutions this spring. view course
