As we navigate new financial waters we hear the frequent comment that everything is more expensive. It is taking increasing talent to stretch incomes. VU offers a few suggestions to help students save money in these tough economic times.
- Textbook Rental Program – could result in savings of up to 60%. Remember: Books are an out-of-pocket expense.
- Purchase Used Books – these go fast so purchasing early is a good investment
- Book Buy-Back Program – turn books into cash at the end of each semester
- Enroll in Personal Financial Management – teaches students to be good financial decision-makers (ECON 208)
Additionally, Vincennes University has partnered with two bus services to help students travel to Indianapolis and northern Indiana during breaks. Our schedule changes each year so be sure to contact us for current information.
