Minor in Financial Counseling

With a minor in financial counseling, you'll gain the knowledge and skills to help financially vulnerable individuals and families achieve their financial goals. When you graduate, you’ll be prepared for a career in a social service agency, nonprofit organization, hospital or another setting assisting individuals, couples and families.

The minor also satisfies the educational requirements to be eligible to sit for the exam portion of the Accredited Financial Counselor designation conferred by the Association for Financial Counseling and Planning Education (AFCPE).
