Fisk University Creates Center for Financial Advancement

The Tennessee Tribune published an article, "Center for Financial Advancement to Launch at Fisk," on August 30, 2017, that provides details of a new campus initiative that will begin operation this fall.  The center intends to focus on money management skills by teaching students about credit and home ownership.  As a side benefit, students will be positioned for careers in the finance, banking, and mortgage industries. 

The center arises from a collaboration between Wells Fargo, the Mortgage Bankers Association (MBA), Bank of America, and HomeFree-USA, a HUD-approved non-profit organization that specializes in homeownership development, foreclosure intervention and financial coaching.
Fisk University is located in Nashville, TN and enrolls more than 740 students.
