Credit and Debt Management for Bar Admission

Your credit report provides more information than just what feeds your credit score. It creates a full picture of your financial health and behavior. Bar examiners may review your credit history and take into consideration your fiscal responsibility (or irresponsibility) when evaluating your Character and Fitness to practice law. And employers may do the same when considering a job offer. Learn to understand the credit system, review your reports, dispute errors, and maintain a positive image with creditors – regardless of where you are on the credit score spectrum. Join Leah Young, Regional Director, Northeast, AccessLex Institute Center for Education and Financial Capability, for this informative discussion on credit and debt management for bar admission. Please RSVP here for this event. Grab and Go Lunch will be provided to all attendees at the end of the event. YLS Community Only. Contact – Jackie Outlaw, Financial Aid Office, 203-432-1688
