Money decisions students can actually understand
The biggest financial decision most people make before 25 is how to pay for what comes after high school. Atlara teaches budgeting, cost of attendance, loans and interest, and what a paycheck really looks like — and connects it straight to each student's own college list and career plan.
Lessons that meet state requirements
A full financial literacy sequence — earning, spending, saving, credit, and paying for school — built for the growing list of states that require it for graduation.
- Aligned to state personal-finance standards

The cost of *their* plan
Instead of abstract examples, students calculate the net price of the colleges on their list, model loan payments against the starting salary of their matched careers, and see the trade-offs in one view.

- Side-by-side comparison of college, trade, military, and work paths
- Scholarship and aid totals pulled in automatically
