We provide you with networking and professional opportunities in the financial planning community.
The Student Financial Planning Association (SFPA) welcomes all students, regardless of current major, who share an interest in financial planning. SFPA focuses on connecting students with employers and faculty, creating internship and job opportunities for members, and building a community of young professionals with an interest and passion for financial planning.
Our meetings typically feature financial planning firms wanting to share industry experience and provide opportunities for our members. Additionally, we host social and community outreach events to connect our members with each other!
