As students head back to school, it is the perfect time for them to take their first steps in forming solid financial habits.
Here is a brief guide to the essential NC Community Credit Union services and products for students and their parents to follow.
We are committed to helping our members acquire good financial skills early in life, as we know this will ensure a lifetime of financial success! Your NC Community Credit Union offers a unique savings program for young members from birth to age 13. Use it as a depository account for tooth fairy funds, birthday money or monies earned from that wildly successful lemonade stand venture!
#MYCU Student Checking Account
Having a checking account is essential to your everyday life. The earlier, the better! Start creating healthy financial management habits with the help of our #MYCU Student Checking Account. Students with positive money habits are more likely to carry these habits into adulthood. With just $1.00 to open this account, enjoy FREE Online Banking, FREE E-Statements, low fees, and many other discounts and features.
Checking account users receive a NCCFCU debit card. This is a particularly helpful tool for students because it allows the convenience of paying with a card but avoids the potential risks of a credit card.
Our free mobile app is one of our best tools for students to manage and track their spending on the go. Users can view account balances, transfer funds and more all from their smartphone.
MYCU is information tailored just for students and young adults. On the MYCU web page, you’ll find topic after topic of critical areas of focus for those new to banking, investing, applying for loans, making a budget and buying your first car or home.
