We launched our student finance survey today

Abhi made the final changes and published our student finance survey today.

With the responses we hope to find out more about Waterloo students’ financial situations and requirements for financial and banking services. The responses will help us as we work to develop and improve financial services for students in Waterloo.

As an incentive for answering our questions, respondents will be eligible for a draw prize of an Apple iPad. Only current students at University of Waterloo, Wilfrid Laurier University and Conestoga College, who are registered at campuses in Waterloo Region, are eligible for a chance at the prize.

Alumni, faculty and staff and other people with relationships to the local university are welcome to respond, but are not eligible for the draw.

You can find the survey at:
