Our 3 Objectives
Knowledge: Students should know that the average undergraduate UIUC freshman takes out about $6,481 in private and federal student loans. These are to be paid back and prepared for financially.
Behavior: Students that use the Illinois app and our weekly text subscriptions will help them make budget plans and know exactly where every dollar is going.
Belief: UIUC students should believe that budgeting will help them succeed in every aspect of their lives now and beyond their years at the University.
A Bit About Us
We are the Wolves of Wall Street, a social marketing team based at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. As four undergraduate students who are about to graduate and enter the real world, we realized not many college students are financially literate or know how to budget. We created the KNOW YOUR $ campaign to educate students on how budgeting can be easy and accessible to anyone.
We believe that all UIUC students should have easy and personable resource that wants them to succeed. So.... Are you ready to start your budgeting with us?
