What is Financial Literacy?
It is the knowledge and understanding of money and how to best manage your money to effectively make important financial decisions.
My Colorado Journey offers an interactive website with a self-paced curriculum on financial literacy to help students and families make sound and informed financial decisions.
Federal Student Aid's online, interactive loan counseling tool, the Financial Awareness Counseling Tool (FACT), helps students and families better manage their finances and understand their obligation as borrowers.
Loan Simulator is a new tool to help you make decisions about your student loans. Use it to find a repayment plan that meets your needs and goals or to decide whether to consolidate.

How to budget in easy steps!
By using a budget, you are the boss of your money. You control your money, telling it where to go and what to do.
Without a budget, you may begin to run out of money. In that case, money controls you.
