SouthernU™ Study Hall

SouthernU™ isn’t just a checking and savings experience – it’s all about getting you ready for the complex set of financial decisions that you’ll be facing over the next decade! It’s about understanding financial basics and being well-informed to make wise choices when a fork in the road presents itself. Whether it is that itch to spend your savings on that sound system for your car – or that credit card they’re offering outside the dining hall, we’ll help steer you in the right direction!

SouthernU™ Study Hall provides an engaging personal educational experience through a series of interactive learning playlists designed specifically for SouthernU™ account holders. Each learning playlist covers a specific point in life – either Graduating High School or already in College – and preparing for “the real world”  through a series of micro-learning moments designed to provide targeted answers to learners’ financial life questions.

From banking basics to saving for the future, SouthernU™ Study Hall is open for learning! Get started today by selecting the option that best fits you!
