How To Save Money in College

FRENZ HUB LIFESTYLE

Start a Budget

A budget is crucial for the school year. Track how much you make, spend, and plan so you only spend what you have.

Get a Free Checking Account

Many banks have student accounts that minimize or even waive all fees. Find a new bank if your bank charges you a monthly account fee or other fees.

Don’t Overdraft Your Account

Do not overdraft on your bank account; in other words, do not spend more money than your checking account.

Look for Student Discounts

Restaurants, movie theaters, and other establishments might give you a deal if you show them your valid student ID card.

Seek Out Education Discounts

If you are a student, you should ask if you can get a student discount before signing up for or paying anything.

Use The Library

The library is an excellent resource you can use to cut down on expenses and meet a college student’s budget.

Getting Used Textbooks

There’s rarely a good reason to buy brand-new textbooks. They are notoriously pricey, so if you can buy used textbooks rather than new ones, go for it!

Take Advantage of Your College

You should get a lot of free things that you otherwise would have to pay for simply by being a student.

Use Career Services

All colleges have a career services office to help you write your resume. There is no cost to you, so you should take advantage of it.

Understand University Services

As a college student, many universities offer a wide range of services as they know that college students struggle with money.
