The Financial Planning Made Simple (FPMS) was created by the Imagine America Foundation to help students protect their future. FPMS is an online-based tool to help career college students make responsible financial decisions. It consists of an 18 minute animated, interactive video with the student’s choice of two avatars to walk them through basic budgeting, borrowing and repayment process.
FPMS includes a downloadable student financial planning calculator that students can use to help them create a budget and determine the amount of loan they can afford, along with what the best post-graduation repayment plan is for them.

There is no general accepted definition or measure of quality in higher education. However everyone can practice quality improvement by selecting the right measures and putting actions in place to improve against those measures.
