Money Matters Informational Sessions

Money Matters at Virginia Tech

Get ready for your first semester with Money Matters—a live Zoom session hosted by the Offices of the University Bursar, University Scholarships and Financial Aid, and Hokie Passport Services.

This session is designed specifically for incoming students and their families to help you understand the financial side of becoming a Hokie.

From financial aid and billing to ID cards and dining plans, we’ll walk you through what to expect and answer your questions directly.

Each Money Matters session covers the same information, so there's no need to attend more than one. Just pick the date that works best for you!
