If you already take steps to manage your finances, you’re almost done.
Just make a post about a tool or process that you use to help you manage your finances on any form of social media, including myUMBC, and then send a screenshot of the post to financialsmartsawards@gmail.com. If you post a video, then send the video file.
That’s it! Your entry will then be in the running for a $500 first-place prize, or a $250 second-place prize.
Prizes are deposited into your Red Card, which you can use for tuition and fees, or other stuff like food, printing, or merchandise from the bookstore.
Entries are due by March 1st, 2018.
