Based on a survey of almost 300 first year college students it is evident that many lack basic financial literacy knowledge and capability. This research project seeks to identify and test ways that more effectively teach basic financial literacy skills to college students. The flywheel effect is discussed and incorporated into various parts of financial literacy education. As part of this project, a follow-up survey tool will be developed to assess the effectiveness of interventions proposed in this study.
