Adulting 101 Workshop Series
What does it mean to become an adult? What does life look like outside of college? Starting out on your own can be scary and is not always easy, but you are not alone! Through our Adulting 101 Workshop series, we go over how to navigate important milestones each of us experiences as we become older such as understanding health insurance, credit scores and credit cards, job benefits, and more.
Workshops are offered every semester on Bryn Mawr's campus with the option to join us over zoom! A copy of the PowerPoint presentation and handout for all sessions are available for anyone interested in learning more.
