ITM on UAA Campus
Whether you’re a fresh high school graduate or a working parent returning to school, being a student is a unique phase in life. It's a time when you're focused on learning and exploring who you are. But it's also an ideal moment to build habits that will set you up for future success — and managing your finances is a big part of that.
As a credit union that is unique to Alaska, the way UAA is, we understand students' realities and challenges, and we’re here to help students build that foundation with the right tools and resources.
That’s why in Fall 2024, CU1 was thrilled to offer UAA students additional resources to help meet their financial needs and goals via our very first Interactive Teller Machine (ITM) on the UAA campus, right inside the student union!
If an ATM is a flip phone, this ITM is the latest and greatest smartphone. It provides many of the same tools and services available at a CU1 branch – such as cash withdrawals and deposits – in an ultra-convenient location on campus. Local, virtual CU1 employees are also available via a tap of the screen to provide assistance with more complex financial needs.
This tech-savvy ITM is just one of the ways we are working to help UAA students, wherever they are in their financial journeys. We’re also committed to providing financial education opportunities on campus, participating in events like Campus Kickoff, and assisting international students with opening accounts.
To all students starting a new chapter at UAA: embrace it. Building your financial foundation is an important part of the adventure. It’s not just about the dollars and change; it's about gaining the freedom and peace of mind that comes with knowing you’ve got this – and we're here to help you every step of the way.
We're excited to be part of your journey and are here for you when you need us.
