FAQs

Get Answers to Our Frequently Asked Questions.

How do I know if I am eligible to open an MCU2 account?

The MCU2 Program is specifically designed for college students between the ages of 18-24 to establish healthy financial habits. If you fall into this category, you may be eligible for an MCU2 account.

If I am under 18, do I need a parent or guardian to sign up for me?

Yes, if you are under 18, you will need someone to sign up with you for a joint account. When you reach the legal age of 18, you can manage the account entirely on your own.

Do I need to open all these products? Or can I pick and choose?

The MCU2 Program offers products and services such as a checking and savings account, loans, MCU2 debit card, and more. However, it is up to you to decide which products fit you best—with no obligation to have them all.

I am a college student, but not in New York. Am I eligible?

Yes! Even if you don’t attend a college in New York, if you’re otherwise eligible for MCU membership, you can set up an MCU2 account and access it online at any time that works for you.
