Advocacy For You

Student Credit & Money Management is here for you! We are advocates for the financial well-being of students and have a history of protecting students from scams, fraud, and financial strife.

For example, Student Credit & Money Management was instrumental in advocating for the removal of most credit card company solicitations on campus. As a result of our efforts, Bank of America is the only credit card company allowed to solicit on campus based on an exclusive contract with the University.

If you have a concern or know about financial issues affecting UI students, we would like to hear from you. You may submit your concerns below, and we will be sure to respond promptly.
