Bank cards: Students' best friendl By KAREN TENSA Going to college takes money. And going to the University of Michigan takes quite a bit of it. Every student has different needs, but most find money easier to deal with through a bank. Ann Arbor offers a wide variety of banking options, most of which beat stuffing the dorm mattress with bills. WHILE SOME students choose their bank because of high interest rates or low service fees, most just choose the most convenient bank. Now, however, almost all of the banks in town are connected by a network of automatic teller machines, which can make transactions convenient regardless of the cen- tral bank's location. Although most machines are affiliated with an in- dividual band, most machines service all the dif- ferent banks in town. Ann Arbor Bank and Trust, one of the most popular banks in town, changed its name over the summer to First of America Bank. But services and personnel have not changed, bank officials say. Even the Ann Arbor Bank and Trust checks are still acceptable. FIRST OF AMERICA has three branches near the University, but the two closest to campus usually have huge lines. To make opening accounts easier, the bank waives the minimum deposit for opening accounts. First of America runs automatic teller machines in the Union, near the Hill dorms, on the corner of State and Packard, and at two locations on central campus. It is the only bank in town that charges a fee, $1, for transactions at another bank's machine. Along with its name change, the bank became a part of a state-wide chain allowing some students to use their hometown bank while they are at school. 11 COAMERICA BANK is convenient for both in-state and out-of-state students, because it is a nationwide institution. It has the lowest overdraft charges and the cheapest checks in town. Michigan National Bank also has branches all over the state, as well as nine in Ann Arbor. The bank has no charges on withdrawals if the savings account balance is above $50, a nice feature for students who are always running short of money. Great Lakes Federal Savings and Loan is situated a short walk from campus, but offers free checks. when students open an account. NATIONAL BANK and Trust Company of Ann Ar- bor has 11 city locations, including two very near campus. For students who tend to bounce checks this bank will automatically transfer money.from savings accounts'to checking when needed. Students employed by the University can bank with. the University of Michigan Credit Union. Like all credit unions it is run by a board of directors elected by the credit union's clients. Clients receive a dividend at the end of the year, as their share of the credit union's profits. The Credit Union offers regular banking programs as well as some special accounts. The Credit Union's equivalent of interest checking is a draft account. The amount of interest varies monthly, but it usually is higher than at the other banks in town. Because everyone has different needs, the only way to choose banks is to go into them, see the length of line, meet the tellers, and find out what they offer.
