Track Your Spending
Use a free budgeting app or even a notebook to see where your money is going. Small costs (like coffee or snacks) add up fast.
Build a Small Emergency Fund
Even $5–10 a week can help cover surprise expenses like car repairs or medical bills.
Take Advantage of Student Discounts
Restaurants, software, and entertainment often offer lower rates if you show your student ID.
Use Campus Resources First
Save money by using the library, tutoring centers, computer labs, and gym instead of paying for extras elsewhere.
Borrow Before You Buy
Rent or borrow textbooks when possible—new books can eat up your budget quickly.
Limit Credit Card Use
Credit can help build your history, but high-interest debt can pile up quickly. Use it sparingly and pay balances in full.
