College is a big investment. If scholarships and federal aid don’t cover everything, a private student loan may help fill the gap. We’ll walk you through your options so you can make a decision that makes sense for you.

What’s Collegiate?
Collegiate is a digital banking app built for student athletes — right now, in season, in school. Whether you’re managing NIL income, covering everyday expenses, or starting to save, Collegiate helps you stay on top of your money without the overwhelm.
With fee-free checking, high-yield savings, spending insights, and financial education built in, it’s simple, secure, and built for how you actually live.
Powered by MSU Federal Credit Union, Collegiate brings you the tech-forward experience you want with the trust and security you need.
Why did Olivet partner with Collegiate?
Olivet College chose Collegiate because we share the same values — community, accessibility, and setting students up for long-term success. Collegiate offers Olivet students fee-free banking, real financial education, and tools built for student life. It’s banking that works as hard as you do.
Is Collegiate safe and secure?
Yes. Collegiate is powered by MSU Federal Credit Union, one of the largest and most trusted credit unions in the country. Your deposits are federally insured up to $250,000 through the NCUA, and the app uses industry-standard encryption to keep your information protected.
What if I have an existing account at MSUFCU?
Great news — you can have both. Collegiate is a separate product built on MSUFCU’s platform, so your existing MSUFCU account stays completely independent. Opening a Collegiate account won’t affect what you already have.
What is a credit union, anyway?
A credit union is a not-for-profit financial institution owned by its members — not shareholders. That means instead of maximizing profits, we reinvest back into better rates, lower fees, and improved services for you. Think of it as banking that actually works in your favor.
How long does it take to open an account?
Less than 5 minutes. Apply directly in the Collegiate app — no paperwork, no branch visit, no hassle.
What if I need help?
We’ve got you. Visit our Help Center for step-by-step guides, or reach out directly through the app. Real support, no runaround.
