The Royal Bank of Canada has been putting a lot of effort into their Student Banking Program and I feel it deserves a lengthy blog post. Students these days are facing all sorts of costs which are hard to manage, and RBC wants to do all it can to help Canadian students succeed. RBC understands that students don’t have a lot of time to manage their banking all the time, so they’ve set it up to make things really easy for you.

Student Bank Accounts:

RBC offers two types of student bank accounts which give you some options to think about and figure out what will work best for you. One of those accounts gives you no monthly fee’s, and the other student bank account offers unlimited debit transactions.

RBC Student Banking - comes with no monthly fee and gives you up to 25 free debit transactions per month.

RBC No Limits Banking for Students - gives you unlimited debit transactions for $10.95 per month or $0 if you qualify for their MultiProduct Rebate.

Student Credit Cards:

Visa Classic Student - Here’s a credit card that’s perfect for students because it has a $1,000 credit limit, so no going crazy on it. This RBC Visa has no annual fees which lets you build a credit history while experiencing the convenience of an RBC Visa card. Only basic benefits are included such as extended warranty protection. Balance protection can also be added for a small fee.

Visa Classic Student II - This Visa Card comes with a low annual fee card that lets you earn 1 RBC Rewards point for every $1 dollar in purchases you make with your card. The interest rate is set at 19.5% and that annual fee is only $15, unless you have a student bank account, then it’s free. This card tends to be the more popular choice because of the extra benefits for little to nothing compared to the regular Visa classic.

Student Line of Credit:

With RBC you can of course apply for a student line of credit if you’re pursuing an undergraduate, postgraduate or professional degree, and you need an easy and flexible way to borrow money. These lines of credit allow you to get a certain amount of course, but you decide on how much you’re going to take out at any given time instead of taking it all at once. This also means you only pay interest on the outstanding amount owed, and they offer flexible repayment schedules which have the student in mind.

The recession is over…right? Well hopefully you folks pick up on my sarcasm because you should know by now that I’m not one to trust the mainstream media(whatsoever). Just before I packed in worked for the weekend I got this news article in my RSS reader from Boomberg.;

Gross domestic product dropped 0.5 percent during the month, compared with the median estimate for a 0.3 percent decrease in a Bloomberg News survey of 22 economists. The economy shrank 0.2 percent in April, Statistics Canada also said, revising its original estimate of a 0.1 percent decline.

I for one am not going to comment on how the economy is doing because honestly I have no clue, but from the statistics in the article, things are gloomy still. So I never intended to handle much “news” on the site but I’m starting to enjoy the comments I’m getting from real people, from the real world. Let’s hear your thoughts folks and try to keep it informative and though provoking.
