Student Assistantship Grant Program

The Student Assistantship Grant Program provides eligible Iowa colleges and universities with a $3,000 grant to hire a student assistant to help with default prevention and financial literacy strategies on their campuses. Student assistants connect with their peers by bringing a shared perspective and level of empathy that only fellow students can share. The Commission also provides the formal training and resources to help them do their jobs.

What can a Student Assistant do on your campus? Whatever you need! Here are some examples of past projects:

• Newspaper articles
• Delinquency letters
• Grace period notices
• Total debt updates
• Presentations to student groups
• Phone calls
• Bulletin boards
• Financial aid bazaars
• Information booths

For more information on obtaining a student assistant, please contact Julie Ntem.
