A student savings account is like a savings account made just for university or college students 📚
They exist to slightly offset the general education expenses and or tuition 💸
So, these accounts come with special benefits. 🥳
Let’s learn about 4 of them today 🧠
1️⃣ Lower minimum balances.
This means you can save smaller amounts and still reap the rewards of interest 🥳
2️⃣ Reduced or no monthly fees
That’s right! Savings accounts cost less to maintain 🤑
3️⃣ Reduced or no overdraft fees
💡Overdrafting is when you run into negative balance
Most banks punish over-drafting your account by charging you a fee, so you’re in debt + owing money 😔
Most student savings accounts, however, know that you’re young and might make more mistakes early on ❤️🩹
So, many of them waive overdraft fees 💸
4️⃣ Perks
Since you register with your student ID, some banks may have perk deals with your school 👀
Banks have varying restrictions, but usually, any full-time college student can open an account 👩🎓
Now you know about special accounts just for students 😎
