I had nothing but a good experience with this account. It really made student loan payments convenient, although now I've graduated to a non-college checking account.....

I got the same discount too as Tim. I have found their checking services to be rather the same as everywhere else. But I love their online banking system, college checking online is very easy! I recommend doing this if you are going to college and need a loan.

I got the .25% discount sure enough from tying the accounts together. All in all it's a great account for managing money during a money crunch time: college. The overdraft protection is a nice touch and feature of this account.

Wells Fargo offers a nice all inclusive system for college students. It ties together student loans and online banking with discounts as incentive to use their system.
