Financial Wellness Peer Coaches
The Financial Wellness Program offers an internship that features peer coaching as one of its main components. Our peer coaches have demonstrated strong abilities in interpersonal communication, problem-solving, and personal finance.
The peer coaches are trained rigorously before they are eligible to work with Dominican students in personal finance matters. They guide students on the Financial Wellness resources available, help them create a budget, show strategies for saving money, paying off student loans, investing tips, and so much more!
