National Media Outlet Highlights New Financial Coaching Program

A reporter with Inside Higher Ed recently interviewed Matthew Lawson, assistant director in the Admissions Office, about the Money Smart Financial Coaching Program. Matthew discussed the program’s timeline, goals and target outcomes for students. The program at MCC is scheduled to begin in the fall 2023 semester.

Quotes from the interview:

-- “It’s designed to support students and teach them good financial habits by building relationships.”

-- “If they want to buy that house, then we’re going to help them build that. Maybe they’re not saving for retirement; we’re going to talk about that. If they just want to have an emergency fund for $500, we’re going to talk about that as well.”
