BBA in Personal Financial Planning Central Michigan University

Program Description

Some of life's biggest milestones involve money. Personal financial planners help people plan to start a family, pay for college and retire. By the time you graduate, you'll get the expertise you need to obtain state and federal licenses and a number of industry certifications including the Certified Financial Planner™ designation. Money is at the core of many of the decisions that shape our lives. Buying a home, sending a child to college and saving enough to retire are major events. Personal financial planners empower clients to achieve these milestones. At Central Michigan University, you'll learn how to weigh risk and opportunity as you help others reach their financial goals. Our program will prepare you to take state and federal insurance and securities exams as well as over ten industry certification exams. For example, CMU's program is Board Certified enabling you to sit for the Certified Financial Planning Exam after graduation. Our program, registered with the Board of Certified Financial Planners ™, follows CFP® Board guidelines.
