SPECIAL STUDENT ACCOUNTS The Credit Union would like help our youth on the road to sound financial practices. To that end, we offer financial services to students 16 years and over. They are eligible for Share draft (checking) accounts, master card, visa credit cards, auto loans and various savings accounts.
