Financial education and peer mentorship to 11th and 12th graders
Moneythink breaks down barriers to college success by directly supporting under-resourced youth in navigating the critical financial decisions inherent to the college matriculation process. Our coaches utilize a web-based, text-messaging platform to provide low-cost, direct, personalized, action-oriented guidance to high school seniors, helping each student to overcome traditionally challenging hurdles throughout their college search process. These tools are designed to help students on an individualized level, and -- when paired with our coaching support -- provide a wealth of expert guidance that ensure a student successfully enrolls in an affordable, supportive match school with minimal financial risk. Our program has four primary interventions across 15 months: 1) Financial coaching including FAFSA support 2) College matching; 3) Financial aid award letter comparison; and 4) Financial planning once students begin college enrollment.We designed our program to meet students where they are, providing important, applicable information at the exact moments they need it most, particularly outside of the classroom where they are making some of the most important decisions of their lives. By bringing critical financial and postsecondary information directly to a student's fingertips in real-time, we increase their access to the information they need throughout the college matriculation process, and in turn, increase their likelihood of successfully persisting through to graduation with minimal debt or financial burden.
