Personal financial wellness is the cornerstone of student success. Our commitment to this principle led Student Connections to create WhichWay, an award-winning financial literacy platform that’s been used by over 41,000 postsecondary students.
We are proud of our legacy and always looking to improve upon it. That’s why we have merged WhichWay with CashCourse, one of the best-known financial-literacy tools in higher ed.
This move is the result of a strategic partnership with the Higher Education Financial Wellness Alliance (HEFWA), the nation’s largest organization of postsecondary financial educators. Working together, we now offer a more robust platform to a much larger body of students, and have a plan to sustain development into the foreseeable future.
The new CashCourse platform was launched in June 2025. It is now available to both HEFWA member schools and Student Connections partner schools.
Product manager, Sara Wilson presents the new CashCourse to an enthusiastic crowd at the 2025 HEFWA Summit in Salt Lake City.

CashCourse’s new Budget Wizard walks students through each step of constructing a personal budget and allows them to export the results as a spreadsheet.
Student Connections’ partnership with HEFWA is ongoing. By working together, we will ensure that both our customers and HEFWA’s member schools have access to a financial-wellness platform that keeps pace with changes in content and technology.
It will also connect our internal development team to HEFWA’s nationwide network of financial-wellness instructors. That means CashCourse’s development will be influenced by hundreds of subject matter experts who work with students on a daily basis. This will help us keep our materials relevant to the evolving needs of learners.
Your organization can get access to CashCourse in one of two ways:
