MoneySmart Lakers is a free on-campus resource located within the Office of Financial Aid & Scholarships, available during the Fall and Winter semesters. Our goal is to help students build the knowledge and confidence to make informed financial decisions. From managing a college budget to navigating student loans and preparing for life after graduation, we provide guidance every step of the way.

Our mission is to empower the Grand Valley community with the financial literacy skills needed to navigate college and career transitions with confidence.

In partnership with MoneySmart Lakers, REP4® FinLit is a free online financial literacy platform that allows students to engage through interactive, online social learning experiences.
