Membership Has Its Privileges

Credit Union Membership

When you join 1st University Credit Union, you become more than a member; you are a Partner!

We are a not-for-profit cooperative that exists to serve our members and their families. As a member, you actually own a "share" in the credit union and can vote for the volunteer Board of Directors that oversees our operations.

When You Belong to a Credit Union, It Belongs to You!

1st University Credit Union is a full service financial institution, offering numerous savings plans and a variety of loan products, usually with lower loan rates and fees, higher savings rates, and personalized, caring and professional service.

How to Join

Once A Member...Always a Member

At a credit union, once you have opened your account and become a member you are always a member, even when you graduate, change jobs, change schools, move away, or retire.

Family Membership

Once you become a member of the credit union, members of your family are also eligible for membership. This includes spouse, parents, grandparents, great grandparents, aunts, uncles, brothers, sisters, nieces, and nephews.
