The WKU Center for Financial Success (CFS) has free campus resources available to help WKU students navigate the challenges of managing their personal finances. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the CFS team is working virtually to provide students with financial guidance. They are providing these services via virtual financial coaching sessions using the WKU Zoom Video Conferencing software.

- Guidance with how to best manage potential University refunds (that may have originated as student loans), stimulus checks, emergency grants, and/or unemployment benefits.
- Plan ahead for the cost of attending WKU this coming Fall
- Live, personal assistance with applications for unemployment benefits
- Individualized strategies relating to COVID-19 federal student loan relief programs
