When attending college, concentrating on your academics is of the utmost importance. However, remember that now is the time to make connections, both social and professional. A lot of those connections will be made outside of the classroom. Whether it’s at a career fair, student organization meeting, or social gathering with friends, involvement is important.

Remember to enjoy your college experience and have fun. This is a time for exploration, building your network, and preparing to take the professional world by storm.

Check out the newest episode of Wallet Watch, brought to you by MSU Federal Credit Union/OU Credit Union, to hear how our involvement outside of the classroom has helped to propel us to where we are today. If you would like transcripts for this episode or any of our episodes, email us at [email protected] Transcripts offer an excellent way to have a copy of the tips and topics we cover in each episode.

Also, we have a raffle!* All you have to do is tag three of your friends under a podcast-related post on any of our Financial 4.0 social media outlets to be entered into the drawing.
