Financial Literacy Month | Nusenda Credit Union

Financial Literacy Month starts now!

At Nusenda, we are dedicated to strengthening our members' financial confidence. Throughout the month, we will share valuable resources, webinars, and tips to help you propel your financial well-being at every stage of life.

Boost your credit score

You may know how your credit score measures up to the national average FICO score of 716, but with the wide diversity of incomes, debt and economic backgrounds across the country, the average credit score can vary widely by state. A lot more goes into your credit score than paying your bills on time, but not everyone knows what they can do to increase their score.

Credit Score tool is offered at no-cost to Nusenda members because we want to ensure they have the tools they need for financial well-being.
