The Financial Aid and Awards office can help you prepare a budget and deal with financial issues during the school year. Your income and expenses are reviewed with a counsellor to identify problems and explore solutions. Through budget counselling, you can learn to keep your finances in order.
To effectively prepare your budget, you should:
- Avoid using credit cards on a regular basis;
- Be realistic with your spending;
- Keep track of your spending habits;
- Maintain an accurate record of your bank accounts;
- Plan your budget at the start of the school year; and
- Review your budget regularly, allowing for circumstantial changes.
