Red to Black Program
The Red to Black program at Texas Tech has a joint initiative with the Texas Tech University Graduate School to focus on the personal finance needs of graduate and international students. The Graduate School supports two graduate student financial counselors/planners available to assist promising undergraduates in their successful financial transition to graduate school. In addition, current graduate students dealing with debt issues can have programs presented to their student organizations or to them individually by contacting www.r2b.ttu.edu.
Red to Black offers free financial planning, financial counseling, and presentations on numerous financial topics. Red to Black is staffed by graduate and undergraduate students who are part of the Personal Financial Planning program (www.pfp.ttu.edu).We cover a broad spectrum of financial topics including debt and credit card management, budgeting, loan consolidation, credit reports, employee benefit selection, and retirement planning, just to name a few. Sharla Taylor and Sonya Britt are the current graduate assistants for Red to Black. For more information please visit our website at www.r2b.ttu.edu or call them to schedule a consultation or a presentation for your group meeting at (806) 742-9781.
