ARE THERE ANY PROVEN BENEFITS OF COLLEGE STUDENTS LEARNING BUDGETING?

Yes, scientific studies have examined the benefits of college students learning budgeting skills and setting goals and action plans. Here are a few key findings from research in this area:

1. Improved Financial Well-being: Several studies have found a positive association between financial literacy, including budgeting skills, and improved financial well-being among college students. For example, a study published in the Journal of Financial Counseling and Planning found that college students who reported having better budgeting skills also reported higher levels of financial satisfaction and lower levels of financial stress.
2. Better Academic Performance: Research has suggested a correlation between financial literacy and academic performance. A study published in the Journal of Family and Economic Issues found that students who received financial education and budgeting training demonstrated better academic performance, including higher GPA scores.
3. Long-Term Financial Habits: Learning budgeting skills and goal-setting during college can have long-lasting effects on individuals’ financial habits and behaviors. A study published in the Journal of Family and Economic Issues found that students who received financial education in college were more likely to engage in positive financial behaviors, such as saving money and managing debt, years after graduation.
4. Reduced Debt and Improved Financial Independence: Developing budgeting skills and setting goals can help students manage their finances effectively, avoid excessive debt, and work toward financial independence. A study published in the Journal of Consumer Affairs found that students who engaged in financial goal-setting reported lower levels of credit card debt and were more likely to pay off their balances in full each month.
